Introduction
This endemic Australian family of moderately small wasps (4–8 mm) is known from one genus, Peradenia, with only two described species (Naumann & Masner 1985). They are known from forested habitats in south-eastern Australia and Tasmania, but are very rarely collected. Their biology is unknown.
