Xoridinae are a worldwide subfamily of the parasitic wasp family Ichneumonidae.
Xoridinae are idiobiont ectoparasitoids of wood‑boring Coleoptera[2] and Hymenoptera (Symphyta). Most parasitize larvae. There are four genera.
In general, the better-known Xoridinae are large robust black and orange insects with a large tooth on the hind femora. Like their hosts, they are woodland species.
