Diagnosis. Body small or medium-sized; terminal flagellomere pointed, sometimes acute apically, in lateral view apex of scapus without double margin at inner side, concave apico-laterally and more or less protruding ventrally; eye glabrous, not or weakly emarginated; face often rugose, at least with sculpture or punctures laterally; clypeus moderately wide and usually with dorsal carina; malar suture moderately developed, but sometimes weak; labiomaxillary complex normal, not elongate; frons with distinct median groove; notauli usually only impressed anteriorly, sometimes developed on disc; propodeum often smooth, sometimes with short carina posteriorly; angle between veins 1-SR and C+SC+R of fore wing more than 55°; vein 1-SR+M of fore wing often strongly bent after arising from 1-M, rarely more or less straight; fore wing vein r shorter than vein 2-SR; fore wing vein 3-SR 1.5–2.6 × longer than vein 2-SR; fore wing vein r-m straight or rather weakly curved; fore wing vein cu-a interstitial or finely postfurcal; hind wing vein 1r-m shorter than vein SC+R1; hind wing often with setae around vein cu-a; claws simple; legs more or less with densely setae; first–fifth metasomal tergites often sculptured, sixth and seventh tergites with striae or punctures, or sometimes largely smooth; first metasomal tergite with convex median area, medio-longitudinal carina present or absent; medio-basal area of second tergite present, usually small; second suture deep and crenulate; third metasomal tergite often with antero-lateral areas; ovipositor normal, subapically upper valve with nodus, and its lower valve with teeth ventrally, or sometimes smooth, upper valve without nodus and its lower valve without teeth.
Biology. Largely unknown; in this paper we report Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) larvae as host.
Distribution. Afrotropical; Australasian; Oriental; South Palaearctic. The distribution of Chinese species, see Fig. 47.
Notes. Campyloneurus differs mainly from Iphiaulax by the distinct medio-basal area of second metasomal tergite (medio-basal area of second metasomal tergite absent in Iphiaulax), the relatively slender scapus (scapus often short/robust in Iphiaulax), and slender ovipositor (upper valve usually not enlarged or weakly enlarged; upper valve often enlarged, exceptionally slender in Iphiaulax) and the often distinctly bent vein 1-SR+M of the fore wing (but sometimes straight or nearly so; usually straight or weakly curved in Iphiaulax).
