These minute insects are challenging to study as they deteriorate rapidly after death unless extreme care is taken e.g., preservation in ethanol , making identification of most museum specimens difficult. The larva e of the majority are primary parasitoid s on Hemiptera , though other hosts are attacked, and details of the life history can be variable e.g., some attack eggs, some attack pupae, and others are hyperparasite s . They are found throughout the world in virtually all habitats, and are extremely important as biological control agents. They are difficult to separate from other Chalcidoidea except by subtle features of the wing venation and other difficult characters, and it appears the family is paraphyletic , and therefore likely to be split up in the future e.g., the Azotinae and Calesinae may become separate families .

Destroyed in the 9th century by the Saracens , it was rebuilt by Atenulf I of Capua , at which time, probably, the see was re established. It certainly had a bishop at the end of the eleventh century. Among the bishops were Odoardo, who assisted at the Council of Lyons 1245 and vigorously opposed Emperor Frederick II , his sovereign, who, on his return, had him killed Niccol Fortiguerra 1458 Francisco de Borja cardinal Francisco de Borja August 19, 1495&mdash June 5, 1508 Teano is a former fief of the Gaetani .
