Anagyrus is a large genus of parasitic wasps from the family Encyrtidae. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] Anagyrus is distributed throughout the world. [9] [10] A subgenus of Anagyrus is known as Nesoanagyrus (Beardsley 1969) [11]
There are at least 247 species in this genus which consists of:
Chalcid wasps are insects within the superfamily Chalcidoidea, part of the order Hymenoptera. The superfamily contains some 22,500 known species, and an estimated total diversity of more than 500,000 species, meaning the vast majority have yet to be discovered and described. The name "chalcid" is often confused with the name "chalcidid", though the latter refers strictly to one constituent family, the Chalcididae, rather than the superfamily as a whole; accordingly, most recent publications (e.g.,) use the name "chalcidoid" when referring to members of the superfamily.
The Mymaridae, commonly known as fairyflies or fairy wasps, are a family of chalcidoid wasps found in temperate, subtropical, and tropical regions throughout the world. The family contains around 100 genera with 1,400 species.
Signiphoridae is a small family of parasitic wasps in the superfamily Chalcidoidea. The roughly 80 species are placed in four genera.
Alexandre Arsène Girault was an American entomologist specializing in the study of chalcid wasps. An eccentric and controversial figure, Girault was also a prolific and dedicated entomologist. He published more than 325 papers and described over 3000 new taxa from Australia.
Chrysonotomyia is a genus of small parasitoid wasps in the family Eulophidae, with over 170 described species. Members of the genus tend to attack insect larvae that feed within living plant tissue, such as gall-formers, leaf-miners and stem-miners. The Neotropics contain most described species. Within the region, most attack galls induced by Cecidomyiidae midges, although there are also records from Torymidae galls, Cynipidae galls, Psyllidae galls, Momphidae leaf mines and scale insects in the family Coccidae.
Eprhopalotus is a genus of hymenopteran insects of the family Eulophidae. Their distribution varies between species but ranges from Costa Rica, Mexico to Texas. There are currently 5 species of Eprhopalotus:
Coccophagus is a large genus of chalcid wasps belonging to the family Aphelinidae.
Aphytis is a genus of chalcid wasps in the family Aphelinidae. There are about 130 species.
Ablerus is the only genus in the family Azotidae. The genus was created by the American entomologist Leland Ossian Howard in 1894 for the species named in that year by William Harris Ashmead as Centrodora clisiocampae. The genus Azotus was synonymized with Ablerus by Alexandre Arsène Girault in 1913 and Hyatt synonymized Myocnemella with Ablerus in 1994, leaving Ablerus as the sole genus within the subfamily Azotinae. Azotinae was elevated in rank in 2013 to become the monotypic family Azotidae.
Encyrtinae is a subfamily of parasitic wasps in the family Encyrtidae.
Anicetus is a parasitic wasp genus in the subfamily Encyrtinae.
John Stuart Noyes is a Welsh entomologist.
Austroencyrtus is a genus of parasitic wasps.
Psyllaephagus is a genus of chalcid wasps. It was named and circumscribed by William Harris Ashmead in 1900. As of 2019, Psyllaephagus contains approximately 245 species. They are found worldwide: Australia has 100 described species; the Palaearctic region has about 57 species, India has about 20, and Africa about 30.
Parachalcerinys is a genus of wasp. As of 2018, three species are recognized, which are all found in Australia.
Moorella is a genus of parasitoid wasps belonging to the family Encyrtidae within the superfamilia Chalcidoidea, in the order Hymenoptera.
