Apulia: Nuzzaci and Triggiani 1982

Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838, is a cosmopolitan genus of 240 species (Yu 1997–2012), with 42 of them listed in Europe (Fauna Europaea).

In most cases, the species of this genus live on larvae of macrolepidoptera, both diurnal and nocturnal and, to a lesser extent, on larvae of microlepidoptera, including tortricids. They are koinobiont larval endoparasitoids, and lay their eggs in the host young larva and pupate inside the mummified remains of the dead caterpillar. Three species of Aleiodes are associated with Lobesia botrana. Nuzzaci and Triggiani (1982) obtained a single specimen of an unidentified species of Aleiodes by EGVM larvae living on Daphne gnidium.
