From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Temnogynidae is an extinct family of apoid wasps, found only in Burmese amber. The family was erected in 2024 with two genera.[1][2] One of the genera was initially given the same name as a genus of spiders, Rhabdogyna. This name was later replaced by Rhapidogyna.[3]
