Qrocodiledundee is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae, with two known species only known from males.[1] The genus was described in 2018 and named after the comedy film series Crocodile Dundee.[2] It is known from Australia[2][3] and Thailand.[1]
Description
[edit | edit source]The genus can be recognized by the flagellomeres with two rows of placodes (flat, plate-like sensory structures), the thorax relatively flattened, the pronotum enlarged dorsally, the propodeum with a lateral projection on each side near the hind margin, and with an incomplete median longitudinal ridge, the second tergite enlarged and rectangular, and the forewing without an areolet.[1][2]
