Mexican species of nine genera of the Ephialtes genus-group (Ichneumonidae: Pimplinae) have been reviewed: Acropimpla Townes (1 species), Anastelgis Townes (3 species), Calliephialtes Ashmead (6 species, including one unidentified taxon), Dolichomitus Smith (4 species), Endromopoda Helln (1 species), Ephialtes Grav. (1 species), Iseropus Frster (1 species), Liotryphon Ashmead (4 species) and Scambus Hartig (16 species, including six morphospecies). Seven species are described as new to science: Acropimpla tequila Khalaim Ruz-Cancino, sp. nov., Anastelgis chiapasana Khalaim Ruz-Cancino, sp. nov., Endromopoda daschi Khalaim, sp. nov., Liotryphon gauldi Khalaim, sp. nov., L. tamajalus Khalaim Ruz-Cancino, sp. nov., Scambus irapuatoensis Khalaim Ruz-Cancino, sp. nov. and S. longicoxa Khalaim, sp. nov. Scambus basseyi Gauld, 1991 is found to be a junior synonym of S. crassicauda (Cresson, 1874) (syn. nov.). Two genera, Acropimpla and Endromopoda, and species Anastelgis garciai Gauld, Calliephialtes notanda (Cresson), Scambus aplopappi (Ashmead) and S. emeritae Gauld are recorded for the first time from Mexico; Anastelgis garciai Gauld is also newly recorded from Panama, Dolichomitus irritator (F.) from Honduras, Scambus albipes (Cresson) from Guatemala and S. arizonensis Walley from Guatemala and Honduras. Identification keys to the species occurring in Mexico are provided.
已审查了九属 Ephialtes 属组（膜翅目：Pimplinae）的墨西哥物种：Acropimpla Townes（1 种）、Anastelgis Townes（3 种）、Calliephialtes Ashmead（6 种，包括一个未鉴定的分类单元）、Dolichomitus Smith（4 种）、Endromopoda Helln（1 种）、Ephialtes Grav.（1 种）、Iseropus Frster（1 种）、Liotryphon Ashmead（4 种）和 Scambus Hartig（16 种，包括 6 个形态种）。有 7 个种被描述为新种：Acropimpla tequila Khalaim Ruz-Cancino，sp. nov.、Anastelgis chiapasana Khalaim Ruz-Cancino，sp. nov.、Endromopoda daschi Khalaim，sp. nov.、Liotryphon gauldi Khalaim，sp. nov.、L. tamajalus Khalaim Ruz-Cancino，sp. nov.、Scambus irapuatoensis Khalaim Ruz-Cancino，sp. nov.和 S. longicoxa Khalaim，sp. nov.。Scambus basseyi Gauld，1991 被发现是 S. crassicauda（Cresson，1874）的次异名（syn. nov.）。Acropimpla 和 Endromopoda 这两个属以及 Anastelgis garciai Gauld、Calliephialtes notanda（Cresson）、Scambus aplopappi（Ashmead）和 S. emeritae Gauld 这 4 个种首次在墨西哥被记录；Anastelgis garciai Gauld 也首次在巴拿马被记录，Dolichomitus irritator（F.）在洪都拉斯被记录，Scambus albipes（Cresson）在危地马拉被记录，S. arizonensis Walley 在危地马拉和洪都拉斯被记录。提供了发生在墨西哥的物种的识别钥匙。
