Three new species of Diadegma Förster, 1869 (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Campopleginae) from the Swiss Alps
Although Europe is the best-explored continent entomologically, major gaps remain, especially in alpine regions and within taxonomically challenging “dark taxa”, such as parasitoid wasps. I describe three new species of Darwin wasps from the Swiss Alps: Diadegma (Nythobia) davidmarquesi sp. nov…

A review of Hyposoter parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae) in Switzerland
Darwin wasps represent the most species-rich family of parasitoid wasps but remain strongly understudied, with many species yet to be formally described. This is especially the case for the subfamily Campopleginae, a group of koinobiont endoparasitoids of various holometabolan insect orders. We…
