Lusius flummox is a species of parasitoid wasp found in Uganda and might be found in Nigeria. The species is similar in appearance to Lusius tenuissimus, and the precise relationship between the species has yet to be determined. The etymology of the species name is the word "flummox," in reference to the difficulty of assigning this species to a genus.[1]
