Chrysonotomyia is a cosmopolitan genus currently with 172 described species (Noyes 2019). It is predominantly Neotropical (107 species described); 12 species are known from India (Noyes 2019). Chrysonotomyia species are reported as primary egg and larval parasitoids of leaf-mining Diptera (Agromyzidae, Cecidomyiidae), Coleoptera (Buprestidae and Chrysomelidae) and some hemipterous insects (Schauff 1991, Noyes 2019). Some important taxonomic works on the genus are by Askew (1979) (NW European species), Bouček (1988) (Australasian species), Hansson 1990 (Palearctic species), Hansson 2004 (Neotropical species) and Jamali (2018) (Indian species).
