Lytopylus is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae. As members of the subfamily Agathidinae, they are koinobiont endoparasitoids of caterpillars. [1] This genus is primarily found in the neotropics, but ranges from the northeastern United States to Argentina. [2] It is also found in the Middle East and Asia. [3] [4] There are 39 species of Lytopylus, and many more undescribed. [2]
