Brown Ichneumon Wasp - ? sp.

Family ICHNEUMONIDAE

This page contains pictures and information about Brown Ichneumon Wasps that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.

Body length  15mm                                                   

 

This wasp is black with reddish-brown legs. From it white-banded antenna, we believed it is in the Phygadeuontinae subfamily but cannot tell the species name. 

 

 

The wasp was found on Oct 2007 in Karawatha Forest searching on the ground.

 

 

Please check the Ichneumon Wasps page for more general information above this wasp.
