Baeus is a genus of wasps in the family Scelionidae. They are parasitoids of spider eggs. They have a cosmopolitan distribution, being found on every continent but Antarctica. Baeus wasps are extremely sexually dimorphic; while females are very compact and have reduced or fused segments, males are winged and have a more typical appearance for wasps in Scelionidae.
