Two species of the genus Allophrys Förster were recently described from Oriental region by A. Reshchikov with co-authors (Yue et al. 2017). According to its original description and photographs, A. falcatus Reshchikov from the Philippines actually is a distinct member of the family Braconidae, and we transfer this species preliminarily to the genus Microctonus Wesmael (comb. nov.) of the subfamily Euphorinae. Another species, A. cantonensis Reshchikov & Yue from South China, was described on basis of a single male, and its further identification is expected to be problematic until its female discovered and described.
