Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Three new species of Trigonalyidae, belonging to three genera, are described and illustrated from South Korea: Jezonogonalos koreana sp. nov., Lycogaster clauseni sp. nov., and Orthogonalys inornata sp. nov. We discuss their possible biology based on collection data, and for Lycogaster clauseni on rearing records. We confirm that Lycogaster clauseni is a regular parasitoid of Eumeninae larvae.
