Abstract

The wasp genus Ampulicomorpha Ashmead, 1893 (Hymenoptera: Chrysidoidea: Embolemidae) is widely distributed in all zoogeographical regions, but had so far not been recorded from India. Here, we provide the first Indian record of the genus with A. nepalensis Olmi, 1997, a species previously reported from Nepal, Vietnam, and Tajikistan.
