The subfamily Campopleginae, was first described by Forster in 1869 based on the genus
Most campoplegine species are specialized parasitoids of Lepidopteran or Coleopteran species, and many particularly attack most of the larvae of Lepidoptera as koinobiont endoparasitoids. The taxa of the genus
In this study, we found a newly recorded species,
The materials used in this study were collected from Jeju, Korea in 2009. The wasps were reared on
Specimens were picked from newly emerging females out of a mass rearing cage and examined by stereo microscopy (Zeiss Stemi SV 11 Apo; Carl Zeiss, Gottingen, Germany). The key characters are shown in photographs that were produced using a Delta imaging system (i-Delta 2.6; iMTechnology, Daejeon, Korea).
