Aphanogmus is a genus of wasps in the family Ceraphronidae that was erected by Carl Gustaf Thomson in 1858. Belgian entomologist Paul Dessart worked on the genus in the 1970's. [1] [2] They are primarily parasitoids of Ichneumonoidea and Cecidomyiidae, although one is a known parasite of Ochrotrichia moselyi , a caddisfly. [3]
