The Eulophinae are a group of wasps that mostly develop as parasites of insects burrowing or mining in plant tissues. In most members of the tribe Eulophini, the posterior margins of the propleura are transverse and diverse at right angles at the prosternum (Burks et al. 2011). Males of Eulophini often have branched flagellomeres on the antennae.
Members of the Cirrospilini have very short, often concealed, petioles, and often have axillae somewhat advanced along the hind section of the notauli. Aulogymnus is a cirrospilin genus parasitic in galls on woody plants in which the axillae are only slightly advanced (Bouček 1988).
Characters (from Bouček 1988): Antenna basally 12-segmented (but one or more proximal flagellar segments reduced to anelli and then eventually lost); scutellum with 2 pairs of setae, sometimes with additional hairs; submarginal vein continuous with parastigma; postmarginal vein well developed; gastral tergites 7 and 8 fused into epipygium. Scutellar grooves often present in sublateral position, always inside the paired setae, anteriorly branching off from axillar grooves (which converge rather strongly), medially often diverging before turning mesad at apex and then often both sides uniting in an arcuate cross-groove at hind margin of scutellum (may be in a more submedian position, mesad of interior corners of the axillae, and not curving inwards posteriorly).
