Xenos is a genus of insects belonging to the family Xenidae .[1] The word derives from the Greek word for strange.[2] A species of the genus is Xenos vesparum , first described by Pietro Rossi in 1793.[3] [4] The females are permanent entomophagous endoparasites of Polistes paper wasps. They dwell their whole lives in the abdomens of wasps .
Four male pupae are visible partially emerged from the wasp's abdomen; likely Xenos peckii , which is a parasite of the paper wasp Polistes fuscatus .
