	abstract = {<p>Braconidae has about 19,500 valid species, and Doryctinae is one of its most\&nbsp;diverse subfamilies with over 1000 species in about 180 genera. However, the\&nbsp;authors point out that the greater diversity of the group lies in the Neotropics,\&nbsp;where there are about 70\% of the genera. In Brazil, have been recorded near 60\&nbsp;genera, 32 for the Brazilian Amazon. However, these genera are known only by\&nbsp;their type-localities, and their identification is so hardy due to the lack of keys for\&nbsp;the region, and the ones that exist belongs to other regions and are outdated.\&nbsp;Thus, the objective here was to conduct a taxonomic study of the Doryctinae\&nbsp;genera occurring in the Brazilian Amazon. For its realization, mainly material from\&nbsp;Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amaz\&ocirc;nia (INPA) and Museu Paraense\&nbsp;Em\&iacute;lio Goeldi (MPEG) were analyzed, besides other entomological collections of\&nbsp;the Amazon region. The material was identified in part through the keys of Marsh\&nbsp;(1997 and 2002) to the New World and Costa Rica, respectively and original\&nbsp;descriptions. It was possible to analyze more than 900 specimens classified into\&nbsp;44 existing genera, beyond recognition of seven new genera and three new\&nbsp;species, all here described. Barbalhoa Marsh, Curtiselloides Marsh, Pannuceus\&nbsp;Marsh, Percnobracon Kieffer, Vanderentiellus Marsh and Bolivar Zald\&iacute;var-River\&oacute;n \&amp; Rodr\&iacute;guez-Jim\&eacute;nez are new records for Brazil, while Aphelopsia\&nbsp;Marsh, Neoheterospilus Belokobylskij, Panama Marsh and Ptesimogastroides\&nbsp;Braet \&amp; van Achterberg are news for the Brazilian Amazon region; besides 24\&nbsp;genera had their records expanded within this region. The subfamily was\&nbsp;recorded in almost all the states that comprise the Brazilian Amazon, except for\&nbsp;Tocantins and Mato Grosso. The largest number of genera was found in\&nbsp;Amazonas (44), followed by Par\&aacute; (23) and Roraima (20). It is suggested that\&nbsp;further collection efforts should be concentrated on those states that had fewer\&nbsp;genera registered (Rond\&ocirc;nia, Mato Grosso, Tocantins and Maranh\&atilde;o) and also\&nbsp;have greater risk of loss of biodiversity due to deforestation. The taxonomic\&nbsp;analysis suggests the existence of a possible synonymy of Johnsonius Marsh\&nbsp;under Semirhytus Sz\&eacute;pligeti, and Aphelopsia Marsh under Callihormius\&nbsp;Ashmead. The Notiospathius Matthews \&amp; Marsh and Allorhogas Gahan have a\&nbsp;great diversity within the region and should be studied separately in the future,\&nbsp;considering the possibility of discovering new species in the first, and a better\&nbsp;definition of it limits in the second.</p>
