Jannya pasargadae is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae. It can be found in Amazonas, northern Brazil.

Description

The species was the first to be described in the genus in around thirty years and was also the first described from Brazil. It was described based on two specimens, a male and a female. The female is the holotype. The female measured 1.6 mm (in) and the male measured 1.7 mm, which is about 1/16”. Overall, they are dark brown in coloration. The male is slightly darker than the female. It is morphologically similar to J. nigriceps.
