Erythres is a genus of oak gall wasp in the family Cynipidae.[1]

In 2002, the genus was synonymized with the more speciose genus Andricus but has since been reinstated.[1] The genus can be differentiated by the uniform sculpture (texture) across the entire mesosoma, head, and dorsal surface of legs.[1] Other genera have at least some variation in sculpture within and/or between these structures.

The galls formed by wasps in this genus are conical in shape.[1] Galls are formed on species in Quercus sect. Lobatae.[1]

All species are currently known from Mexico.[1]

Below is a list of known species in the genus Erythres:[1]
