A molecular phylogeny of the Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera). [PDF]
Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera) are extremely diverse with more than 23,000 species described and over 500,000 species estimated to exist. This is the first comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the superfamily based on a molecular analysis of 18S and 28S ...

New parasitoid (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) records of bark beetles (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae) in pine plantations in Bulgaria [PDF]
In 2020 and 2021, chalcidoid parasitoids (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) of bark beetles in pine (Pinus spp.) plantations were studied in Bulgaria. Samples (cuttings of stems and branches) of pine trees infested by bark beetles were collected from seven ...

Mitochondrial genome of Chalcidoidea sp. (Hymenoptera: Apocrita: Chalcidoidea) and phylogenetic analysis [PDF]
Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera) are minute wasps which can attack immature and adult stages of virtually all insect orders. Here, we sequenced and annotated the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Chalcidoidea sp.

Large-Scale Integrative Taxonomy of the Smallest Insects Reveals Astonishing Temperate Diversity (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Mymaridae). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fairyflies (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Mymaridae) are a diverse but taxonomically understudied group of parasitoid wasps that attack the eggs of other insects. Being among the very smallest of all insects, they are often ignored in biodiversity surveys despite being one of the most abundant microhymenoptera in many habitats.

Chromosomes of parasitic wasps of the superfamily Chalcidoidea (Hymenoptera): An overview [PDF]
An overview of the current knowledge of chromosome sets of the parasitoid superfamily Chalcidoidea is given. Karyotypes of approximately 240 members of this group, i.e. just above one percent of described species, are studied up to now.
