Anastatus orientalis is a species of parasitic wasp which preys on Lycorma lanternfly eggs.[1] Females live significantly longer than males, over ten weeks compared to the male lifespan of three weeks.[2]
It may be useful as a control of spotted lanternfly which has become an invasive pest in the United States . 69% of lanternfly egg cases in China were found to be parasitized by the wasp.[3]
