Genera
The following genera are generally accepted within Synergini:[4]
All of these except Lithosaphonecrus and Rhoophilus are found in the eastern Palearctic realm.[4] Synergus has the greatest number of species in Synergini.[7]
A reworking of the entire Cynipidae family published in 2015 transferred three genera formerly included in Synergini to other tribes - Ceroptres to a tribe of its own (Ceroptresini), and Periclistus and Synophromorpha to Diastrophini.[8]
