The subfamily Ichneumonoidea contains the two largest families within Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae and Braconidae. The group is thought to contain as many as 100,000 species, many of which have not yet been described. Like other parasitoid wasps, they were long placed in the “Parasitica”, variously considered as an infraorder or an unranked clade, now known to be paraphyletic.
