Abstract

A revised classification of the subfamily Pimplinae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) based on characteristics of final-instar larvae is suggested and discussed. On a basis of larval characters the subfamily falls into two tribes: the Pimplini; and the Ephialtini, which consists of the subtribes Ephialtina, Polysphinctina, Poemeniina, Rhyssina and Theroniina.
