The immature instars of parasitic Hymenoptera have been studied by several authors, the classic works of Clausen (1940) and Hagen (1964) being outstanding, as are the keys for the taxonomic differentiation of mature larvae compiled by Beirne (1941), Short (1952, 1959, 1970, 1976), Finlayson (1967, 1975) and Capek (1970).

 Parasitoid Survey - project methods and results
Reared parasitoids were initially sorted to the family level (Braconidae or Ichneumonidae) and host defoliator species was determined when possible using curated remains.
Identification of host species was largely a process of comparing structural morphology between unknown host remains and the shed remains curated with identified adult moths in the WSDA reference collection.
Braconidae specimens were identified by Dr. Michael J. Sharkey, at the University of Kentucky, and Ichneumonidae specimens were identified by Dr. David Wahl, at the American Entomological Institute.

The Ichneumonidae is one of the most species rich families of all organisms with an estimated 60 000 species in the world (Townes 1969).
An estimated 12 100 species of Ichneumonidae occur in the Afrotropical region (Africa south of the Sahara and including Madagascar) (Townes and Townes 1973), of which only 1 927 have been described (Yu 1998).
The family Ichneumonidae is currently split into 37 subfamilies, of which 24 have been recorded from the Afrotropical region (Yu 1998).

 Ichneumon wasp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The superfamily Ichneumonoidea (consisting of two families: the Ichneumonidae and the Braconidae) has been estimated to contain well over 80,000 different species.
In a letter to American botanist Asa Gray, Darwin wrote "I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created the Ichneumonidae with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of Caterpillars, or that a cat should play with mice."
They are also sometimes called "Scorpion Wasps" due to the extreme lengthening and curving of the abdomen.

 Ichneumonidae: Introduction
With the exception of the Ichneumoninae, Townes provided a comprehensive higher-level classification of the Ichneumonidae in his four generic monographs (Townes, 1969, 1970a and b, 1971).
The ensuing 27 years have seen many changes, both at the generic level and in the number of subfamilies, plus the publication of several regional catalogues and treatments (Townes and Townes, 1973; Carlson, 1979; Gauld, 1984; Gupta, 1987).
Townes did not include this group within the Ichneumonidae, treating it as a separate family (Townes and Townes, 1982).

Until the larvae fully grown, the larvae either pupates inside the dead host or form a cocoon outside.
Parasitic Wasps mainly belong to Family ICHNEUMONIDAE and Family BRACONIDAE.
Members in this two families are very similar, the major different is their wings vein which has to be check under microscope for the small species.

 Ichneumon wasp
Adult wasps can occasionally be found in the spring (March), attached to the trunk on a dead tree with their long ovipositor.
Pest Status: The family, Ichneumonidae, contains many species considered to be beneficial insects because their larvae develop on other insect pests; although generally considered to be harmless some species are capable of stinging when improperly handled.
