Ateleutina is a small subtribe of Cryptinae (Ichneumonidae) composed of two genera: Ateleute Forster and Tamaulipeca Kasparyan. Neither of the genera includes species described from South America. In this article five new species of Ateleute (A. ashaninka sp. n. and A. amarakaeri from Peru, A. shuar sp. n. from Ecuador and Peru, and A. huaorani sp. n. and A. kichua sp. n. from Ecuador) and three new species of Tamaulipeca (T bora sp. n. from Ecuador and Peru, T candoshi sp. n. from Ecuador and T matses sp. n. from Peru) are described and illustrated from Western Amazonia. Identification keys to the known South American species of the genera are provided.
