Cryptinae, Gelinae, Phygadeuontinae and Hemitelinae are names used interchangeably for a subfamily of the ichneumon wasp family of insects. The first three listed are more commonly used. "Cryptinae" was formally proposed by the ICZN, but "Phygadeuontinae" may be the technically valid name. "Gelinae" was used by H.T. Townes in his comprehensive but idiosyncratic review.[1]

A 5-sided areolet, a short sternaulus, and a puffy face with a convex clypeus are diagnostic characters for most members of this large subfamily.
