Parasitoid wasp

Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae

Parasitoid wasp

Adult parasitoid wasps occur around decaying organic matter, livestock areas, fruit, and other sites where fly pupae are abundant. Females search for fly puparia and insert an ovipositor to lay eggs on suitable hosts. Adults may feed on nectar or honeydew, while their larvae develop by parasitizing flies.
