Agathidinae is a subfamily of braconid parasitoid wasps. Some species have been used in biological control programs.[1]

Description and distribution

Agathidines are among the larger and more colorful braconids. Diurnal members of this subfamily often possess aposematic coloration. They belong to the noncyclostome group.

They are found worldwide, but are more diverse in the tropics.

Biology

All Agathidinae are koinobiont endoparasitoids of caterpillars. Most attack concealed caterpillars, such as those that use silk to tie leaves together. Most are solitary, laying only one egg in each host caterpillar. Some species are nocturnal, with pale coloration and large ocelli.[2]
