Adeliini (wasp)
Adeliini Viereck, 1918 is a tribe of braconid parasitoid wasps within the subfamily Cheloninae. Until 2016, Adeliini was classified as a separate subfamily, the Adeliinae.[1] However, the name Adeliini Kirby, 1828 for a tribe of beetles has priority, and Adeliini Viereck, 1918 is a junior homonym.[2]

Description and distribution
Adeliini are small, non-cyclostome braconids with the first two to four tergites fused to form a carapace. Wing veination is relatively reduced compared to other Chelonines.
Biology
Adeliini are koinobiont endoparasitoids of leaf-mining moths in the family Nepticulidae.[3]

gollark: I've been able to obtain the Remy bot from our competitrons.
gollark: I think there are lots of things just made up for that. Like, er, the ray gun thing with the big SCP number.
