BrachymeriaÂ is a genus of parasitic wasps in the familyÂ Chalcididae. Over 300 species are known worldwide, all of them parasites of insect pupae.[1]Â Most species are black with limited yellow markings, and like most chalcidid wasps, they have enlarged hind femora. The female typically lays eggs inside the pupae of aÂ lepidopteranÂ using its ovipositor. Although mostly parasitic on Lepidoptera, a few are hyperparasites & x28;parasites of parasiticÂ HymenopteraÂ andÂ Diptera& x29;, or attack other types of insect larvae & x28;such asÂ Polistes erythrocephalus& x29;
