Abstract EN

We provide an overview of diapriid wasps associated with ants in Argentina and the diversity of interactions they have developed with their hosts.

As a result, we report 16 species of nine genera of Diapriinae, two new geographic distributions, three new association records, illustrations, and photographs.

We highlight myrmecophile symphylic species, with a high degree of integration with the host ants, adaptation being morphological and behavioral.

A table with diapriid species and ant hosts is given.
