The concept of the Australian genus Phanuromyia Dodd is expanded to include 9 species: P. bidentata n. sp., P. flavescens (Dodd) new combination, P. hysteropteri (Bin) new combination, P. necopinata Dodd, P. obscuripes (Pélov) new combination, P. oocida (Pélov) new combination, P. pulcherrima (Dodd) new combination, P. rufobasalis Dodd, and P. sacchii (Ogloblin) new combination. Representatives have been found worldwide, but the greatest diversity is in the Old World. The known hosts are eggs of Issidae and Fulgoridae (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha). The genus is contrasted with the crassiclava species group of Telenomus, another group also known to attack species of fulgoromorphs.
