Abstract
The ichneumonid subfamily Microleptinae is reported from India and Thailand for the first time. We describe four new species from India (Microleptes chiani Ranjith & Humala, sp. nov., M. gowrishankari Ranjith & Humala, sp. nov., M. sandeshkaduri Ranjith & Humala, sp. nov., M. tehriensis Ranjith & Humala, sp. nov.) and one new species from Thailand (M. depressus Ranjith & Humala, sp. nov.), and for the first time, we report the Chinese species, M. xinbinensis Sheng & Sun, from India and describe the hitherto unknown female. An identification key to the extant species of Microleptes is provided.
