The general antennal structures are commonly seen within other chalcid wasps except for a specialized 'explore area' on the ventral apex of female antenna.

A small wasp belonging to the family Agonidae, especially Blastophaga psenes, that breeds in caprifig and is active in the pollination of fig trees and shrubs.

Fig wasps (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) and their host figs (Moraceae: Ficus) is an excellent model for the study of such evolutionary topics as adaptation, male polymorphism, etc.
