Lanugo is a genus of wasps belonging to the family Ichneumonidae. The name refers to the Latin word lanugo , meaning soft, downy hair, due to the hair found on species within this genus. [1] This genus differs from the otherwise similar genus Compsocryptus by its "moderately short, straight ovipositor rather than a longer upcurved one, axillus vein closer to anal margin of hind wing, front size of areolet narrower." [1]
