Megaspilidae
The Megaspilidae are a small hymenopteran family with 13 genera in two subfamilies, and some 450 known species, with a great many species still undescribed. It is a poorly known group as a whole, though most are believed to be parasitoids (especially of sternorrhynchan Hemiptera), and a few hyperparasitoids. Many are found in the soil, and of these, a number are wingless. The family is distinguished from the closely related Ceraphronidae by having a very large stigma in the wing, a relatively constricted metasomal petiole, and three grooves in the mesoscutum. The largest genus within Megaspilidae is '' Dendrocerus''. The second largest genus is ''Conostigmus''. Genera These 13 genera belong to the family Megaspilidae: * '' Aetholagynodes'' Dessart, 1994 * '' Archisynarsis'' Szabó, 1973 * ''Conostigmus'' Dahlbom, 1858 * '' Creator'' Alekseev, 1980 * '' Dendrocerus'' Ratzeburg, 1852 * '' Holophleps'' Kozlov, 1966 * '' Lagynodes'' Förster, 1841 * '' Megaspilus'' Westwood, ...

Conostigmus
''Conostigmus'' is a genus of parasiotoid wasps belonging to the superfamily Ceraphronoidea. It is the second-largest genus within the family Megaspilidae (Johnson & Musetti 2004). The genus has a worldwide distribution with over 170 extant species. Though it is the second largest genus within Megaspilidae, little is known about its life history. A few species are known to be ectoparasitoids, though it is likely that the genus also contains endoparasitoids as well, since the sister genus ''Dendrocerus ''Dendrocerus'' is a genus of megaspilid wasps in the family Megaspilidae The Megaspilidae are a small hymenopteran family with 13 genera in two subfamilies, and some 450 known species, with a great many species still undescribed.

Ceraphronidae
The Ceraphronidae are a small hymenopteran family with 14 genera and some 360 known species, though a great many species are still undescribed. It is a poorly known group as a whole, though most are believed to be parasitoids (especially of flies), and a few hyperparasitoids. Many are found in the soil, and of these, a number are wingless. The family is distinguished from the closely related Megaspilidae by having a very small stigma in the wing, a very broad metasomal petiole, and a single median groove in the mesoscutum. The taxon was erected by Alexander Henry Haliday Alexander Henry Haliday (1806–1870, also known as Enrico Alessandro Haliday, Alexis Heinrich Haliday, or simply Haliday) was an Irish entomologist. He is primarily known for his work on Hymenoptera, Diptera, and Thysanoptera, but worked on ... in 1833.
