Classification
Overview
Trigonogastrella is known only from Australia, where there are 2 described species (Boucek, 1988; Noyes, 2002; 2003). Species are parasitoids of Diptera, especially (or perhaps exclusively) Agromyzidae, mining in leaves or other parts of herbaceous plants (Boucek, 1988; Noyes 2002; 2003).
Identification
Boucek (1988) includes Trigonogastrella in his keys to genera of Australasian Pteromalidae.
