Description

Dipara trilineata (Diparidae) is a widespread eastern North American parasitoid with apterous females and winged males. Despite its seemingly limited dispersal capabilities, phylogeographic analysis over southern Appalachia reveals little structure, with only limited population level isolation. DNA barcoding surveys also definitively associate the male of the species, which had previously been misattributed, and a description of the correctly associated male is provided.
