Areyonga is a genus of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.[1] It currently consists of only one species, Areyonga eremica, from Australia.
The genus has a few distinguishing features: it lacks occipital carina, the lower mandibular tooth is reduced to a vestigial state, and the segments at the base of the flagellum of each antenna are short 'annellar-like'.[1] The describing author Gauld inferred that it was related to the genus Probles.[1]
