The Euphorinae subfamily of Braconidae are solitary koinobiont endoparaistoids. They parasitize insects in the imago stage or (for some hemimetabolous insects) the nymph stage.
Representative tribes of Euphorinae are Centistini, Cosmophorini, Cryptoxilonini, Dinocampini, Euphorini, Helorimorphini, Meteorini, Myiocephalini, Oncometeorini, Perilitini, Proclithrophorini, Syntretini, and Tainitermini.
Wasps of the Euphorinae tribe Dinocampini parasitize adult beetles.[1] Its four genera are Dinocampus Foerster, Ropalophorous Curtis, Centistina Enderlein, and Betelgeuse.[1]
