Eulophidae of Hawai'i II

Eulophidae is a large family of insects within the order Hymenoptera (bees, wasps, ants and sawflies). There are an estimated 300 genera with approximately 4,300 species described to date. Eulophids are primarily parasitoids on a variety of arthropods, but some species' larvae do feed on plant tissue. This family is rare in that is it is one of only two known families that parasitize Thysanoptera (thrips). Their distribution spans world-wide, and they can be found in nearly every habitat (one is even aquatic parasitizing water-penny beetle larvae). These small, delicate eulophid specimens are known to deteriorate in condition quickly after death, and are therefore extremely hard to study and preserve. Please help transcribe the UHIM's Eulophid collection in order to better help us understand their distribution and impact in Hawai'i.This expedition of 524 tasks is fully transcribed and validated.

姬小蜂科（Eulophidae）是膜翅目（Hymenoptera，涵盖蜂类、胡蜂、蚂蚁与叶蜂）下的大型昆虫类群。据统计，截至目前已被描述的该科昆虫共计约300个属、4300余种。姬小蜂科昆虫主要为多种节肢动物的寄生性天敌，但部分物种的幼虫会取食植物组织。该科颇为特殊，是目前已知仅有的两类可寄生缨翅目（Thysanoptera，蓟马）昆虫的类群之一。它们的分布范围遍及全球，几乎可在各类生境中被发现——其中甚至有一类为水生类群，寄生于水便士甲幼虫体内。这类体型小巧、形态纤弱的姬小蜂科标本在死亡后会迅速腐坏变质，因此极难开展研究与标本保存工作。恳请协助转录夏威夷大学昆虫博物馆（UHIM）所藏的姬小蜂科标本馆藏，以助力我们更好地了解该类群在夏威夷的分布情况与生态影响。本次包含524项任务的转录工作已全部完成并通过校验。
