Mikeius is a genus of wasps found in Australia. Species of Mikeius are thought to be associated with hosts that induce galls on Acacia and Eucalyptus species.[1]

The genus and six species were first described in 2008.[1] In 2011, several alterations were made to the taxonomy of Mikeius. One new species, M. clavatus, was described, and a new subfamily, Mikeiinae, was erected from Thrasorinae.[2] M. neumanni was transferred to the new genus Cicatrix and M. schauffi was transferred to the new genus Palmiriella.[2]
