The Darwin wasp genus Chirotica Förster, 1869 (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae, Phygadeuontinae) is poorly represented in Brazilian entomological collections, with only three previously described species. Herein, four new species are described and illustrated: C. juquia sp. nov., C. maraca sp. nov., C. mariua sp. nov. and C. nigra sp. nov.. Four other species are recorded for the first time for Brazil: Chirotica brevilabris Townes, 1983, C. pothina (Marshall, 1982), C. bruchii (Brèthes, 1904) and C. stangei Townes, 1983. New morphological characters, comparative diagnoses, distribution maps and an illustrated key to the Brazilian species are also provided.
