Liotryphon laspeyresiae is a species of parasitoid wasp belonging to the family Ichneumonidae,[1][2]
The species was first described in 1932 as Ephialtes laspeyresiae by Toichi Uchida.[1][3] This wasp is a parasite of the larvae of the moth, Laspeyresia molesta,[3] from which the species epithet derives.
It is found in both Korea,[2] and Japan.[3]
