Braconidae Wasps from Korea: 103 Alysiinae Species with 8 New Descriptions

517 Alysiinae braconid specimens from Korea form this taxonomic dataset, representing 103 species. The material includes 39 Alysiini and 64 Dacnusini species, with eight new species described and illustrated with 121 original figures. J. Papp authored the original journal article in 2007, which was subsequently digitized by Plazi.

Use Cases

• Taxonomic classification of Alysiinae wasps based on species descriptions and figures.
• Faunistic analysis of Korean insect biodiversity based on the locality data for 103 species.
• Comparative morphology studies based on the redescriptions and relationships to nearest allies.
• Training or testing species identification models using the described morphological features.

Strengths

• Includes 517 physical specimens providing a substantial basis for the study.
• Documents 103 distinct species, including 8 newly described to science.
• Provides 121 original figures to support morphological identification.

Limitations

• Row count and file format are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
