Two new species of Trichogrammatoidea, Trichogrammatoidea ruficolorata and T. brevicaudata are described from Bangalore, India. The males are morphologically similar to T. armigera and T. fulva, respectively. The relative lengths of ovipositor to hind tibia are markedly different in both pairs of species serving to differentiate between these species pairs. Females have therefore been designated as holotypes.
