Abstract

The genera of chalcid parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) of citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae), are reviewed and an illustrated key is presented. Forty-one genera of Chalcidoidea have been recorded as using the citrus leafminer as a host. Members of the families Encyrtidae, Pteromalidae, Eurytomidae, Elasmidae, Eupelmidae, and Eulophidae have been recorded with the majority of the species being eulophids. One new genus, Cryptastichus LaSalle, and one new species, Cryptastichus sabo LaSalle, are described. The species Sympiesis purpurea Waterston 1915 is synonymized with Sympiesis striatipes Ashmead 1904.
