A New Wasp, and Solution of an Old Mystery

A previously undescribed species is discovered on UHM campus

A New Wasp, and Solution of an Old Mystery

Mymarommatoidea is a group of miniscule but very beautiful wasps, around 0.5 mm in length – which to our eyes look like specks of dust. They’ve been elusive to entomologists, and were the last major group of parasitoid wasps about which nearly nothing was known regarding their biology. We have scant records of what they do in the world and none of what they develop on. In fact, living individuals in their natural environment have never been recorded in the scientific literature.
