Resumen:
Eucharitidae are a monophyletic family that are exclusively parasitoids of ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) pupae (Heraty, 1995, 2002; Heraty et al., 2004; Murray et al., 2013). Members are morphologicallydiverse, but all have the pronotum reduced and below the level of the mesoscutum so that in dorsal view the pronotum is not visible, the labrum has a row of digit-like processes apically, the mandiblesare falcate or sickle-shaped, unless reduced, and a malar sulcus is absent. Members are distributedin almost every zoogeographical region of the world but are most abundant in the tropics (Heraty, 2002; Girish Kumar, 2004; Gadallah et al., 2013).
