Palmiriella is a monotypic genus of wasp found in Australia.[3] The sole species is Palmiriella neumanni.[3] It was initially described as Mikeius neumanni in 2008 by Matthew Buffington.[2] In a 2011 revision, the species was moved to the newly erected genus Palmiriella.[1] The genus is named for Palmira Ros-Farraré.[1]
The holotype, a female, measures 3.2 mm (0.13 in). It was collected from Mount Nebo, Queensland. Males are unknown.[1]
