          Abstract

          A total of 10 species of Enicospilus (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Ophioninae) have previously been reported from Nepal. Six new species are described here (E. alleni Shimizu sp. nov., E. kakanicus Shimizu sp. nov., E. nepalensis Shimizu sp. nov., E. nikami Shimizu sp. nov., E. phulchokiensis Shimizu sp. nov., and E. tangi Shimizu sp. nov.), and 10 are newly recorded (E. ashbyi Ashmead, 1904, E. bifasciatus (Uchida, 1928), E. capensis (Thunberg, 1824), E. flavocephalus (Kirby, 1900), E. formosensis (Uchida, 1928), E. grammospilus (Enderlein, 1921), E. pudibundae (Uchida, 1928), E. purifenestratus (Enderlein, 1921), E. yonezawanus (Uchida, 1928), and E. zebrus Gauld & Mitchell, 1981) from Nepal. A preliminary identification key to the Nepalese species of Enicospilus is provided. The elevational pattern of Nepalese Enicospilus is briefly discussed. Enicospilus purifenestratus is also recorded for the first time from Brunei.
