Eprhopalotus is a genus of hymenopteran insects of the family Eulophidae. Their distribution varies between species but ranges from Costa Rica, Mexico to Texas. There are currently 5 species of Eprhopalotus:

  • Eprhopalotus canaliculat (Hansson, 2004)
  • Eprhopalotus cordylatus (Hansson, 2004)
  • Eprhopalotus crinitus (Hansson, 2004)
  • Eprhopalotus hansoni (Hansson, 2004)
  • Eprhopalotus purpureithorax (Girault, 1916)

    • While Aabacharis is a synonum of Eprhopalotus, it applies in particular when referring to the species hansoni; hence it has been sourced as both Aabacharis hansoni and Eprhopalotus hansoni.
