The Diprionidae are a small family of conifer-feeding sawflies (thus the common name conifer sawflies, though other Symphyta also feed on conifers) restricted to the Northern Hemisphere, with some 140 species in 13 genera. Larvae are often gregarious, and sometimes there can be major outbreaks, thus these sawflies can be major forest pests at times.[1]
The family has distinctive antennae with about 20 flagellomeres. Males have pectinate antennae and females have serrate anntennae.[2]
These 13 genera belong to the family Diprionidae:
