Allophrys is a genus of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
A genus is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms, as well as viruses, in biology. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus.
Family is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy; it is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as being the "walnut family".
The Ichneumonidae are a parasitoid wasp family within the order Hymenoptera. Unlike other parasites, parasitoids kill their hosts. Ichneumonids are important parasitoids of other invertebrates; common hosts are larvae and pupae of Coleoptera (beetles), Hymenoptera, and Lepidoptera. About 25,000 species have been described worldwide. Estimates of the total species range from 60,000 to over 100,000 – more than any other hymenopteran family.
Allophrys falcatusReshchikov, 2017 [3] was transferred to the genus Microctonus . [6]
Gelinae is a subfamily of wasps in the family Ichneumonidae. The name is not universally accepted; it is also called Phygadeuontinae, Hemitelinae, and Cryptinae by various authorities. Gelinae was the name used by H. K. Townes in 1969.
Dryinidae is a cosmopolitan family of solitary wasps. Dryinidae comes from the Greek. Latreille named this family because the first species was collected in an Oak plant in Spain. The larvae are parasitoids of the nymphs and adults of Auchenorrhyncha (Hemiptera). Dryinidae comprises approximately 1800 described species, distributed in 15 subfamilies and 50 genera.
Banchinae is a subfamily of ichneumonid parasitoid wasps containing about 1,500 species; the genera Glypta and Lissonota are very large. The three tribes are all distributed worldwide.
Pimplinae are a worldwide subfamily of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
The Tryphoninae comprise a worldwide subfamily of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
Campopleginae is a large subfamily of the parasitoid wasp family Ichneumonidae with a world-wide distribution. Species in this subfamily have been used in the biological control of the alfalfa weevil, clover weevil, various species of Heliothis, oriental army worm, European corn borer, larch sawfly, and others.
Tersilochinae is a worldwide subfamily of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
Tersilochus is a genus of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae. The type species is Tersilochus jocator.
Allophroides is a genus of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae. The type species is Allophroides boops.
Aneuclis is a genus of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
Leptogenys is a genus of ants in the subfamily Ponerinae. Leptogenys is the most diverse ponerine ant genus in the world; it is widespread throughout tropical and subtropical regions and there are over 260 extant species described. Most species have ergatoid queens, and many have falcate, bowed mandibles and are specialists on isopod prey.
Anomalon cruentatum is a species of parasitoid wasps belonging to the family Ichneumonidae.
Scambus is a genus of wasps. Species are found in Europe, the Middle East (Turkey), South America (Peru)
Idiogramma elbakyanae is a species of parasitoid wasp found in the Mexican state of Tlaxcala. The species was named and described by the Russian entomologist Andrey I. Khalaim. The description was published in a 2017 open access article co-authored with Mexican entomologist Enrique Ruíz-Cancino.
Idiogramma is a genus of wasp. It is the only extant genus in the tribe Idiogrammatini.
Idiogramma comstockii is a species of wasp.
Clistopyga crassicaudata is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae which was first described in 2018. It is found in Peru and was one of seven new species found in a narrow zone of vegetation between the Amazon rainforest and the Andes. It received attention in the news due to the size of the female stinger/ovipositor.
Ferdinand Rudow was a German entomologist best known for the poor quality of his taxonomic work. He described over 200 species of wasps during his lifetime, almost all of which have been revised as synonyms of other species.
