Type species: Spilomicrus stigmaticalis Westwood, 1832, by monotypy. NOTES . All members of this genus are small to medium-sized parasitoids (1.0– 4.5 mm ) with dark, smooth and shining body. Spilomicrus can be recognized using the keys to genera of the Eastern Palaearctic (Kozlov, 1995) and Oriental region (Rajmohana, 2006). Synonymy of the genus follows Johnson (1992) and Notton (2014). The information about host-parasitoid relationships of majority Spilomicrus species is absent. The main hosts are the parasitoids of pupae of different Diptera families, rarely ‒ the larvae of the coleopteran family Staphylinidae (Hoffmeister, 1989; Masner, 1991; Notton, 1999).
