Genus of wasps
Aphanogmus is a genus of wasps in the family Ceraphronidae that was erected by Carl Gustaf Thomson in 1858. Belgian entomologist Paul Dessart worked on the genus in the 1970's.[ 1] [ 2]
They are primarily parasitoids of Ichneumonoidea and Cecidomyiidae , although one is a known parasite of Ochrotrichia moselyi , a caddisfly.[ 3]
At least 90 species belong to the genus:[ 4]
