Ichneumonoidea is a super-family of insects of the sub-order Apocrita, order Hymenoptera distinguished by an areole on the fore wing and deposit their eggs either in or on the bodies, eggs, or larvae of other insects. These apparently insignificant creatures confer inestimable benefits on man, as they destroy hosts of insects injurious to crops. Research Ichneumonoidea
