Pediobius is a genus of hymenopteran insects of the chalcid wasp family Eulophidae. Like their relatives, the larvae of these diminutive wasps are parasitoids of various arthropods (mainly insects). Some Pediobius are used in biological pest control.
There are over 200 species in the genus Pedobius[1] and these include:
- Pediobius eubius (Walker, 1839)[2]
- Pediobius foveolatus Crawford, 1912
- Pediobius imbreus (Walker, 1846)
- Pediobius lysis (Walker, 1839)
- Pediobius metallicus (Nees, 1834)
- Pediobius parvulus (Ferrière, 1933)
