Araucania is an invalid genus of braconid wasps in the family Braconidae, found in South America. There are at least two described species in Araucania.[1][2]

The valid genus Araucania Pate 1947, in the family Sapygidae, has nomenclatural precedence over the braconid name, published in 1993,[3] so the latter name must be replaced, following the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature Article 52.2.[note 1]
