152 Hymenoptera in America North of Mexico 



A predominately Western Hemisphere genus with a large number of species, most of which 

 are undescribed. Most species, where records are available, are parasites of coleopterous larvae, 

 but a few species attack lepidopterous larvae, and one Holarctic species is a parasite of sawfly 

 larvae.
