The genus Chrysocharis Foerster is represented so far by 137 species in the world (Noyes, 2012). Among these 25 species occur in the Oriental Region and 13 species are known from the Indian subcontinent (which includes India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Myanmar, Bhutan and Sri Lanka) (Hansson, 1985a, 1985b; Khan et al., 2005). The species of Chrysocharis are economically very important since their hosts are mostly larvae or pupae of Leaf mining insects. The purpose of this paper is to review Chrysocharis species of the Indian subcontinent, to describe new taxa and to provide a new key for identification of these species.
