In this paper, one species of Diaparsis Förster (D. splendens Horstmann) is recorded and two species of Phradis Förster (P. bufalosus sp. n. and P. nanacamilpus sp. n.) are described from Mexico. Both genera are extremely rare in the Mexican fauna, being represented by single specimens from a large amount of ichneumonids examined in many Mexican and USA collections. A partial identification key to North American species of Phradis is given. Colour photographs and morphological remarks on D. splendens are provided.
