Xanthopimpla punctata,also known as the Yellow Ichneumon Wasp, is a yellow-colored Ichneumon Wasp of subfamily Pimplinae. Xanthopimpla spp. play a beneficial role in agriculture. They are important parasitoids of lepidopterous stem borers of cereals, sugar cane and other crops; they lay their eggs on moth caterpillars that damage crops.
