Most people don't think of wasps being aquatic, but there are definitely some that exist, such as Agriotypus sp. They are parasitoids of Trichoptera pupae and pre-pupae. #Agriotypus #Ichneumonidae

I remember reading about Agriotypus wasps in Donald LJ Quicke's book "The Braconid and Ichneumonid Parasitoid Wasps" (p 385-387) and thought these caddisfly parasitoids are some of the most amazing wasps alive.

And that should say Agriotypus spp. Apologies!

Very pleased to find this aquatic parasitic wasp Agriotypus armatus in Cumbria by the River Greta yesterday, specific to caddisfly larvae #insects #wasps #hymenoptera #parasiticwasps #Cumbria
