Resumo(s)
JUSTIFICATION: Meloboris insularis is an endemic ichneumonid wasp species of the Azores (Portugal), having been recorded from Faial island. From the historical data, this species could have a very small Extent of Occurrence (16 km²) and Area of Occupancy (16 km²). Despite the location of its description being currently a Nature Reserve (Caldeira do Faial), it is possible that this species has declined in the past as a result of human activity. However, the present situation of this species needs to be further assessed, further research is needed into its population, distribution, threats, ecology, life history and indigenous host species. Conservation/restoration of native habitats, as well as invasive plant species control, could potentially also aid this species' conservation. Based upon the lack of recent data regarding this species population, distribution, threats, ecology and hosts, this species is assessed as Data Deficient (DD).
