Chrysocharis sp., from here.

Belongs within: Eulophidae.
Contains: Pleurotroppopsis, Apleurotropis, Omphale, Pediobius, Chrysonotomyia, Pseudomphale, Closterocerus, Entedon.

The Entedoninae are a group of eulophid wasps characterised by the presence of only a single pair of bristles on the scutellum, and a generally tapering submarginal vein on the forewing with a reduced number of bristles that does not usually smoothly connect to the parastigma (Bouček 1988).

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Frontal grooves usually of an X-shape; notaular grooves modified (not simply groove-like); scutellum usually with only one pair of setae, paired grooves absent; propodeum with simple spiracle placed near to metanotal margin and surrounded at least anteriorly by a groove, postero-lateral corners reduced, often blunt, so that metapleuron is partly visible dorsally. Forewing with submarginal vein usually tapering distally, broken off the broad base the of parastigma, bearing usually only 2 dorsal bristles; stigmal vein mostly very short, postmarginal vein frequently short though mostly distinct, only rarely absent.
