An overview of the family Leucospidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) is provided for the leucospid fauna of the Arabian Peninsula. Two genera containing four species are identified based on morphometrics and colour patterns. One species, Leucospis ayezae Usman, Anwar & Ahmad, sp. nov. , is described. Leucospis elegans Klug had been previously recorded from Arabia Felix (= Yemen) and is recorded here for the first time from Saudi Arabia. The status of Leucospis aff. namibica from Yemen has been clarified, and this species is placed here in the genus Micrapion Kriechbaumer as M. clavaforme Steffan. An updated key and a map showing the distribution of the family Leucospidae in the Arabian Peninsula is provided. The occurrence and color morphs of all leucospid species that have been recorded so far from the region are briefly discussed.

The families Metapelmatidae and Neanastatidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) are recorded for the first time from Saudi Arabia based on the presence of Metapelma mirabile Brues, 1906 and Neanastatus africanus Ferrière, 1938, respectively.

In last decade, since the publication of the book “open innovation” by Chesbrough, the idea of open innovation has received extensive interest of scholars as well as the practitioners. The progression of thought process has been heighted in brief. Enablers of open innovation are also discussed along with the process for implementing open innovation as mentioned in the literature. Discussion on future prospects of the field along with future perspectives for the research is most significant part of the paper. Few research areas are highlighted that remained untapped in the previous decade and demands for an urgent inquiry.
