Lemophagus is a genus of ichneumon wasps in the family Ichneumonidae. There are about eight described species in Lemophagus. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Ichneumonidae family of insects

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.
