astronomy-to-zoology:Conura amoena…is a species of Chalcidid wasp that is native to both North and South America, ranging from the United States to Argentina. Adult C. amoena will attack the pupae of Lepidoptera (Typically hairstreak butterflies Theclinae) and lay their eggs inside them. The butterfly pupae will then serve as the foodsource for C. amoena’s young.ClassificationAnimalia-Arthropoda-Insecta-Hymenoptera-Chalcioidea-Chalcididae-Chalcidinae-Conura-C. amoenaImage(s): ©Gayle and Jeanell Strickland -- source link
