Platygastroidea

Index Platygastroidea

The Hymenopteran superfamily of parasitoid wasps, Platygastroidea, has often been treated as a lineage within the superfamily Proctotrupoidea, but most classifications since 1977 have recognized it as an independent group. [1]

10 relations: Antenna (biology), Hymenoptera, Ovipositor, Parasitoid wasp, Platygastridae, Proctotrupoidea, Scelionidae, Synapomorphy and apomorphy, Teleasinae, Telenominae.

Antenna (biology)

Antennae (singular: antenna), sometimes referred to as "feelers," are paired appendages used for sensing in arthropods.

Parasitoid wasp

Parasitoid wasps are a large group of hymenopteran superfamilies, all but the wood wasps (Orussoidea) being in the wasp-waisted Apocrita.

Platygastridae

The hymenopteran family Platygastridae (sometimes incorrectly spelled Platygasteridae) is a large group (over 1100 species) of exclusively parasitoid wasps, mostly very small (1–2 mm), black, and shining, with elbowed antennae that have an eight-segmented flagellum.

Proctotrupoidea

Proctotrupoidea is a Hymenopteran superfamily containing seven extant families, though others have been recognized in the past.

Scelionidae

The hymenopteran family Scelionidae is a very large cosmopolitan group (over 3000 described species in some 160 genera) of exclusively parasitoid wasps, mostly small (0.5–10 mm), often black, often highly sculptured, with (typically) elbowed antennae that have a 9- or 10-segmented flagellum.

Synapomorphy and apomorphy

In phylogenetics, apomorphy and synapomorphy refer to derived characters of a clade – characters or traits that are derived from ancestral characters over evolutionary history.

Teleasinae

Teleasinae is a subfamily of ants, bees, wasps and sawflies in the family Platygastridae.

Telenominae
