Family PLATYGASTRIDAE 



Members of this family for which host associations are known are mainly parasites of Diptera, 

 and especially of the Cecidomyiidae, but some are important parasites of mealybugs and 

 whiteflies. Occasional species have been reared from wasp larvae of the subfamily Crabroninae, 

 from hymenopterous galls, and from eggs of certain Coleoptera.
