Ichneumonids are important parasitoid wasps in the population regulation of other insects and spiders in nature. In Mexico, 1 301 species of the family Ichneumonidae have been recorded, however, in some Mexican states as Campeche, they have been poorly studied. The objective of this study was to to establish new records of ichneumonid species captured in Escarcega, Campeche. Specimens were captured from May 6th to 20th of 2014, by using two Malaise traps, in the Wildlife Management and Conservation Unit (UMA) “Casados Ranch”. Taxonomical determination was done at the Insects Museum of the Faculty of Engineering and Sciences from the Autonomous University of Tamaulipas; the identified organisms were deposited in the Insects Collection of the Autonomous University of Campeche in Escarcega. Ten subfamilies, 17 genera and 10 species were determined; from them 7 subfamilies, 16 genera (excluding Eiphosoma)  and 10 species are new records for Campeche, increasing the knowledge of the species of Ichneumonidae in  that region. Archive XML (SciELO)

Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonoidea) de Escárcega, Campeche, México: nuevos registros de especies

Las avispas parasitoides de la familia Ichneumonidae forman uno de los grupos mas grandes de insectos del orden Hymenoptera, algunas especies son agentes de control biologico de plagas agricolas o forestales, otras bioindicadoras y algunas polinizadoras. Los objetivos de esta investigacion fueron conocer la riqueza, diversidad y equidad de los icneumonidos colectados en un bosque de alta montana en Miquihuana, Tamaulipas, Mexico. Se colectaron icneumonidos desde agosto de 2011 hasta agosto de 2012 con una trampa Malaise instalada en un bosque de Pinus pseudostrobus Lindl. y un chaparral denso de Quercus miquihuanensis Nixon y Muller a 2,550 msnm. Se encontraron 13 subfamilias, 63 generos y 133 especies. Existe alta riqueza, pero baja diversidad de especies. Diez generos son nuevos registros para Mexico: Aclastus F o erster , Arotrephes Townes , Distathma Townes, Gnypetomorpha F o erster , Pleurogyrus Townes , Lysibia F o erster , Stiboscopus F o erster y Tricholinum F o erster de Cryptinae, ademas Deleboea Cameron de Banchinae y Lethades Davis de Ctenopelmatinae. Para el Estado de Tamaulipas, Mexico, 16 generos son nuevos registros, incluyendo los 10 anteriores, ademas de Mnioes Townes (Banchinae), Amphibulus Kriechbaumer , Stilpnus Gravenhorst (Cryptinae), Asthenara F o erster (Ctenopelmatinae), Sathropterus F o erster (Tersilochinae) y Hercus Townes (Tryphoninae).

Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) en un bosque de alta montaña en Tamaulipas y nuevos registros de géneros para México

In the last 171 years, the forests along the eastern bank of the Panama Canal have been pressured by anthropic activities. Studies of the influence of habitat fragmentation on braconid wasp communities in Central America is scarce, showing the existing information gap on these communities required to implement strategic plans for ecosystem sustainability and conservation. This study investigated how fragmentation affects braconid wasp communities in three areas in Panama City: Metropolitan Natural Park, Albrook and Corozal. Two permanent Malaise Traps were installed in the center of each fragment and were reviewed weekly from May 2019 to March 2020. Alpha and beta diversity indices and the similarity index were used to demonstrate the composition of braconid wasp communities in three forest fragments.A similarity of 94% was estimated for the subfamily composition and 74% was estimated for the morphospecies composition of wasp community in the fragments studied. Wasp subfamily and morphospecies assemblages were more similar between fragments of Albrook and Metropolitan Natural Park. Richness and abundance of braconid wasps observed were statistically different between the fragments studied.Richness, abundance, and composition of braconid wasps differ among habitat fragments with high similarity between subfamilies and morphospecies. Therefore, the fragments studied can be used as stepping stones to maintain remaining populations of braconid wasp communities. Monitoring is recommended to assess the effect of fragmentation on the remaining forests.

Parasitoid wasps of the family Ichneumonidae form one of the largest groups of insects in the order Hymenoptera, some species are important agents of biological control of agricultural or forest pests, other are bioindicators and some are pollinators. The objective of this research was to know the richness, diversity and equity of the ichneumonids collected in one high mountain forest in Miquihuana, Tamaulipas, Mexico. Ichneumonids were collected from August 2011 to August 2012 in a Malaise trap installed in one Pinus pseudostrobus Lindl. forest with a dense chaparral of Quercus miquihuanensis Nixon and Muller at 2,550 masl. Thirteen subfamilies, 63 genera and 133 species were found. There is high species richness but low diversity of species. Ten genera are

Ichneumonids are parasitoid wasps with importance in the biological control of insect pests and constitute one of the most diverse families of Hymenoptera. The objective of this research was to know the diversity of Ichneumonidae and its relationship with temperature and rainfall in one locality of Jaumave, Tamaulipas, Mexico, during one year. One Malaise tramp was operated at 1,450 m in a dry forest with Pinus nelsonii, P. cembroides and Juniperus flaccida, with a small source of water near it. The number of ichneumonids collected was 1,115. Cryptinae was the subfamily best represented in number of genera and species, Pimpla the genus more abundant and Pachysomoides stupidus the species with more individuals. High diversity of this family was found in the studied locality. High correlation was found between Ichneumonidae and temperature, and a moderate correlation with rainfall. Three species are new records for Mexico and 5 for Tamaulipas, therefore 1,298 species are known in the country. This research contributes to the knowledge of Ichneumonidae in dry areas from Mexico.
