Abstract
The genera of Entedontinae (Eulophidae) were keyed out by several authors (Graham, 1959; Peck et al. 1964; Nikol’skaya and Trjapitcyn, 1978; Boucek, 1976; 1988; Schauff, 1991; Schauff et al., 1997). The European genera were keyed out by Graham (1959) as 19 genus; the palaearctic ones by Peck et al. (1964) as 26 genus and by Nikol’skaya and Trjapitcyn (1978) as 24 genus ; the Australasian genera by Boucek (1988) as 44 genus and the nearctic genera by Schauff et al. (1997) as 29 genus. In these works there are only four genera parasitizing Thysanoptera, viz. Goetheana Girault, Thripobius Ferriere Ceranisus Walker and Entedonastichus Girault. In the subfamily Entedontinae, the genera parasitizing Thysanoptera have distinctive group characters (Boucek, 1976 and 1988, Schauff et al., 1997, Boucek, 1976). The main characters of the group are: body brownish, poorly sclerotized, henceeasily collapsing, without distinct sculpture; female antennae with two funicular segments; complete vertexal suture
