Campopleginae

Campopleginae is a large subfamily of the parasitoid wasp family Ichneumonidae with a world-wide distribution.

Campoplegines are small, slender, black and brown insects with a laterally compressed abdomen.

Most species are solitary, but a few may be gregarious, with multiple parasitoid larvae emerging from the same host.

Some members of this subfamily possess polydna viruses which are injected into the host during oviposition.
