1 Charipinae The Charipinae are tiny insects, 2.1 mm
long or less. They have a smooth
thorax, and they are hyperparasitoids, attacking braconids, which are
aphid parasitoids. They are
hyperparasitoids of Hemiptera.The African genera Alloxysta and
Phaenoglyphis are
hyperparasitoids of Aphididae via Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) and Aphelinidae
(Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea). Species of the African geners Apocharips
and Dilyta are hyperparasitoids of Psyllidae via
Encyrtidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea). References: Please refer to
