Cynipencyrtus is a genus of parasatoid chalcid wasps.[1] The genus was originally placed in the family Encyrtidae then moved to Tanaostigmatidae before being placed in its own family: Cynipencyrtidae, which it remains the sole genus of.[2]

Members of the genus are primary parasatoids of gall wasps with C. flavus parasitizing Dryocosmus kuriphilus and Andricus species.[3][2] The exact host of C. Indicus is unknown however, the species was collected from a forest of Quercus leucotrichophora.[4]

Cynipencyrtus flavus can be found in Japan and China while C. indicus is found in India.[4] Their bodies are entirely a non-metallic yellow or orange except for a brown gaster on the female.[2]
