An enemy who casts spells or sounds an alarm which bring additional enemies into combat, while causing some damage itself. Sometimes the summoned enemies are just Mooks; in other cases, they are as powerful enemies as the summoner. Can get very dangerous for the player if those enemies are summoners themselves. Might be an enemy version of The Beastmaster or The Minion Master or Necromancer, depending on who or what is being brought out.
See also the Mook Maker, who doesn't do anything to hurt the player except churn out an endless series of Mooks, and the Flunky Boss, who may summon weaker allies as part of a Boss Battle, and Patrolling Mook, which does the same thing only if it spots the player. Some Enemy Summoners go as far as to summon Mook Makers. They may also be able to make those mooks more organized and powerful.
The ability to create large amounts of enemies can make them Demonic Spiders or Goddamned Bats. They are a common candidate to be Metal Slime, since you have to kill them fast or the sheer amount of summoned opponents will overwhelm you, so you don't have many opportunities to steal.
If what they summon are flying turrets, this is Attack Drone and the summoners are Drone Deployers. If what they summon to fight are their own offspring, then you have Weaponized Offspring.

Sunrider has PACT Carriers and PACT Assault Carriers, each of which will spawn a new Ryder every turn until destroyed. Assault Carriers are the more dangerous of the two, as while normal Carriers can only spawn PACT Mooks and PACT Bombers, Assault Carriers can spawn PACT Elites and PACT Supports. They’re also more heavily-armed and will try to engage the player’s forces directly, while normal Carriers will hang back at the rear of their formations.

The Queen in Starcraft has the ability to kill any organic enemy unit by spitting eggs into them. The eggs hatch into 2 Broodlings, killing the unit in the process. Able to kill Goliaths (mecha-units) and tanks through the explanation that the pilots are organic. Doesn't explain why the mecha explodes...

Soaring Machinariae:
The giant plants in the Chanting Woods can summon bees to attack. However, the bees disappear after flying offscreen.
The giant knights in the Tower of Desire can summon sword enemies, which also remove themselves from the field like the bees.
The mirror enemies in the Tower of Desire can summon weak copies of Iris as enemies. However, if the mirror is killed before the clones, the clones will still remain on the field as regular enemies.

Hellsinker:
The secret form of Rusted dragon and Perpetual Calendar does this.
Technically, a large majority of enemies in the game do this. The bullets — particularly, the ones that can be slowed down and nullified with your Battle Aura — are actually microscopic spirits known as "Faint Ones". The Executors use these as well.

The Battlefield series has Awesome Personnel Carrier vehicles that fill this role (though whether it's enemies or friendlies being summoned depends on which side you're on). Even moreso than the Real Life example below, because empty seats in friendly vehicles are valid locations for respawning players.

Dragon Quest VIII seems to have a lot of enemies who can summon more of their kin (including the Dead Ringers' earlier variant, Magic Dumbells, who can even level themselves up) or revive monsters that you've already killed in the current battle (either by casting Zing/Kazing to resurrect one, or sacrificing themselves with Kerplunk to revive every other monster in the battle).

ADOM features many summoners.
The monster levelling system (amount of [monster] killed determines strength of new [monster]) means that once you've cleared out two or three packs of the same summon, any further summons will become stronger. Much stronger. This is supposed to be Anti-Grinding, but instead upgrades summoners from 'annoying' to 'kill on sight'/'avoid'.
Werecreatures can generally summon ordinary creature of their type. Werewolf lords can summon werewolves, which are also summoners. A large room can be filled in 3-5 turns. Werewolf kings, though rare, can summon said werewolf lords.
Blink Dogs are notable as they summon more blink dogs and can teleport at will.
Spellcasters can often summon: black wizards summon random creatures, necromancers summon undead, liches summon either depending on type, drow wizards and priestesses summon spiders, Chaos-aligned wizards summon Chaos creatures.
Merchants can summon additional muscle (thugs or in one case muscular dwarves) if the player is foolish/unlucky/overpowered enough to cross them.
Several bosses also do it, most obviously Yulgash the Master Summoner.
There are also breeders, which reproduce quickly — especially when a gremlin is hit by a water trap.

Fire Emblem:
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn: Later chapters have the enemies abusing their uber Warp staff to summon in reinforcements. Even without magic staff, Fire Emblem bosses have a habit of bringing out reinforcements from no where.
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia: There is an enemy class called Cantor whose main purpose is that they are one of the few classes who can summon more units. Some healers in the game can also do so. Also, one map on Celica's route in Gaiden/Echoes contains nothing but a Cantor. The map is there to introduce you to them.

Dragon Quest:
The bell-like Dead Ringers of Dragon Quest VIII, who can summon up to eight of themselves.
Dragon Quest III had the Goopi, who could (and did) call for more and more of themselves as you killed them. It made them great for Level Grinding, except when they randomly called out a much-tougher Granite Titan.
And starting from Dragon Quest IV on, the player can run into groups of seemingly ordinary slimes during the mid-game... that can call in their friends. Lots of friends. And then they can fuse into a King Slime...

Guild Wars has varying forms of this. In the most basic forms, Necromancer and Ritualist enemies can summon hordes of enemies using the same skills available to the player.
The most well-known monster-specific form are the Torment demons. When low on health they can summon a fully-healed duplicate of themselves... who can summon a fully-healed duplicated of themselves when low on health...
Generally disregarded is the ability of certain Charr in Eye of the North to summon Hunter Beasts, hard-hitting caster enemies.

NetHack:}
The monster spell Summon Nasties; the bane of every game (Archons, Archons, and more Archons on the Elemental Plane Of Air). And any minor-level demon encounter has the potential to end with the player suddenly fighting Demogorgon.
Demons in general can sometimes gate in a co-aligned demon every time they attempt an attack, which in turn can gate in more. Special mention goes to vrocks, who has six attacks per turn (so it has a larger chance to gate in things) and is sufficiently low levelled that they mostly only gate in more vrocks, who in turn can gate in more vrocks, and so on and so forth.

Sand Maggots in Diablo II which spit poison and lay eggs.
Vile Mothers in Act 4 can create an unlimited (Sand Maggots at least can only lay a limited amount of eggs) amount of Vile Childs apart from hitting you with their claws. Besides, they have cold resistance, so you can't use cold attacks to stop them from moving. On top of that, in the River of Flame you may be attacked by BOTH Sand Maggots and Vile Mothers. Expect VERY long fights.
Diablo II is full of a variant of enemies like this, where they start with a full complement of units and resurrect them whenever you kill one. Unless you raise it as a skeleton, make the corpse explode, or freeze it and smash the remains or in some way make it Deader than Dead.
Nihlathak in the expansion pack who would summon monsters, then corpse explode them if you killed them.

In Oblivion, this is a trait of Skeleton Champions, which carry high-end claymores, and summon (and re-summon) a lower-tier skeleton. Skeleton Champions are Made of Iron, and their pet skeletons are dangerous in their own right, and easy to confuse for the Champion in the heat of battle meaning you could inflict the killing blow; and rather than taste victory, another skeleton is instantly spawned and the battle carries on.

In Grandia there are many different types of slime, all of which can split themselves into multiple slimes which can then multiply. Unless you use a critical hit on the slimes attempting this then having an unending supply of slimes to kill can be extremely irritating or even fatal.

A huge number of the bosses from World of Warcraft in a variety of ways, ranging from simple summoning to calling for help to splitting themselves into smaller pieces to creating dozens of illusions of themselves, to taking control of some players' bodies and making them help. In addition, many basic mobs will, after being reduced to low health, either shout for nearby mobs to assist, or run and look for them. Regular mobs also sometimes summon aid, normally in the form of demons or undead. Given that the expansions packs have focused on these (BC and Wrath respectively) they're found in a few instances. They are generally the cause of wipes to groups not aware of them.

In Skyrim's Dragonborn DLC, Seekers are a Cthulhumanoid form of lesser Daedra in service to Hermaeus Mora, the Daedric Prince of Knowledge. Seekers can summon a weaker clone of themselves to aid them in battle, and the clone will disintegrate if the Seeker is killed first.

In There Was No Secret Evil Fighting Organization, Sago telekinetically creates "World Shadow" puppets for his students to fight. He could fight directly if needed, and he could also tell them that the World Shadows aren't real threats, but where would the fun be in that?

Overland: Siren bugs don’t directly attack the group, but instead run around the map, producing signals that summon other bugs every turn. They generally need to be killed quickly to keep the group from being overrun. (Thankfully, they’re also the only enemy that doesn’t produce noise when killed.)

LEGO Star Wars features the Battle Droid Commander (the yellow one) from The Phantom Menace, who is a normal battle droid, but with increased health, and the ability to call other battle droids into the fight that follow it around. When the player gains control of it in Free Play, it has the standard four hearts of health, but still retains this ability. The Imperial Spy from A New Hope similarly calls other Stormtroopers to fight the party for him in Mos Eisley, but he only attacks you with punches if you get too close.

Dungeons & Dragons has quite a few monsters which can summon allies to their side:
In general, a summoned creature can't themselves summon other creatures, preventing a potential infinite loop. Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, 2nd Edition also had the Deepspawn — a rubbery ball of tentacles, mouths, and eyestalks that can make a physical duplicate (though without the special abilities) of anything it's ever eaten. These duplicates could use weapons and armor to fight whatever threatened the Deepspawn.
Ravenloft: A cursed villain from the supplement Carnival is afflicted with this trope. He's not so lucky as to summon the freakish little Mooks he calls upon; rather, they bud off his flesh as corporeal manifestations of his evil thoughts and emotions.

Necromancers in Dwarf Fortress can raise any corpses and parts of corpses left lying around... and currectly, they can re-raise them any time the player succeeds in putting them down.

In a relatively rare sci-fi example, Fallout 2, the Military Base features entirely optional boss Melchior. He summons monsters of diminishing strength before joining battle himself. A determined and confident player often lets him, as he eventually runs out, meaning you get experience for all the monsters killed. The Master in Fallout does the same with his Nightkin Hallucinations.

Escape Velocity features ships that can carry smaller fighters, many of which are decent threats by themselves. Game by game breakdown  Escape Velocity — 5 Fighters normally found on 5 ship types, not including special NPCs; Override — 6 Fighters on numerous ships; Nova: At least 12 baseline fighters, not counting variants within each type, all being carried by an even wider range of ships. Carried ships can also be retrieved and redeployed fully healed immediately, even if they are disabled in battle. With plugins, it is possible to give a ship a fighter bay that deploys that same type of ship, often leading to a chaotic battle where only the engine limitations keep things under control.

Super Mario World:
Some of the Chargin' Chucks can inexplicably summon Super Koopas to bedevil you. In a slight variation, there's a type of underwater Chuck that will wake up EVERY Rip Van Fish in a stage. They wake up based on your proximity anyway, and chase you around, but this enemy prevents any possibility of sneaking by as they nap.
Magikoopas can fire blasts of hero-damaging magic that can also transform ordinary blocks into minor enemies on contact. A Magikoopa also appears as a boss in Super Mario RPG. This one can summon one of several powerful creatures to hide behind, and you have to beat them in order to attack the Magikoopa himself. Fortunately, this Magikoopa won't attack you while one of his monsters is in play.

Mega Man X: Command Mission, the only game to operate from a purely turn-based interface, has several enemies with summon abilities. For instance Bee Bladers can summon Deerballs, while the Gold Bladers can summon Gold or Silver Mettaurs, turning the fight into a mad scramble to wipe them out before they all flee. Many smaller or weaker enemies also have the SOS ability, which summons another enemy of like type when used. Most worryingly, Optional Boss Fivetails has this ability. This means the clones of him just keep coming and it is almost mandatory to contrive of a way to kill all of them simultaneously, as any clone can use the Annihilator Hadoken. Worst of all, A Fivetails clone can choose to simply Self Destruct to instantly wipe out one of you party members, then have one of the remaining Fivetails summon a fresh clone at full health to take the place of the fallen one.

RuneScape has several of these:
Astea Frostweb summons ice spiders to assist her.
Her husband Lexicus Runewright will summon flying books to harass players using all combat styles.
The Necrolords periodically summon skeletons to attack their enemies.
Mercenary leaders call in their subordinates to deal with intruders.
Bork summons Ork Legions to help him.
Summoner is among the horde of trolls trying to invade a human town; he summons some of the things that players can summon. Another kind of troll that appears in the same fight is the troll father, which summons three troll runts.
Nechryael summon flying death spawns to harass their foes.
Strongbones is an undead goblin priest who summons multiple skoblins to fight the player who disturbs his rest.
The Queen Black Dragon has two kinds of enemies she can summon. She occasionally summons a group of tortured souls which all fire powerful chaotic clouds at you. If they are not killed quickly enough, she will absorb them to heal herself, and occasionally one of them will teleport the edge of the arena and cast a time stopping spell if you don't kill them immediately. And whenever her health bar is depleted, she will start spitting up grotworms until you activate the artifact to start the next phase of the fight or finish her.
Flesh-spoiler Haasghenakh produces a large number of flesh-spoiler spawn when he starts the second phase of the fight by shedding his outer skin.
Both of the two fights against Zemoregal has in summon large numbers of undead minions. The fight in The World Wakes has him summoning armored zombies, ghostly wraiths, and skeleton bone throwers. The fight in Dimension of Disaster has him summoning exploding zombie cows.
Dawn summons skeletons during the fight against her.
Yelps summons bodyguards during the boss fight against him.
TzTok-Jad summons four Yt-HurKot when he gets down to half health, and if you fail to stop them before they heal him back to full heath he can summon them again.
Glacors summon three Glacytes when they get to half health and can't be damaged until they are all dead. Each Glacyte has a different ability and the Glacor gains a new ability depending on which of the three is killed last.

Final Fantasy IV has a class of enemies including the Summoner and Marionetteer which will repeatedly call in another monster when they're alone. Since they never run out of MP, they can be useful for grinding (and in the case of a Summoner summoning Goblins, farming for Rydia's Goblin summon orb).

Final Fantasy XI has a lot of these, but a special mention has to go out to those enemies of the Summoner job class. The basic cannon fodder can only summon elementals, but the Elite Mooks can summon the elemental Avatars, and have access to the 2-Hour Astral Flow, which has that Avatar deal enough damage to One-Hit Kill anyone even remotely close to that Avatar. Thankfully, they can be slept beforehand, but they still can cause wipes in Dynamis, that's for sure.

Angband:
The game has many, many different types of hostile summoners. They include the quylthulgs, which are invisible, cold-blooded (so they aren't visible with infravision) fleshmounds that every turn either summon one or more monsters or teleport themselves around. A character who cannot see invisible things will have quite a problem stopping new monsters from appearing seemingly out of the blue.
There are also many types of monsters that can chain-summon. For example, greater demons summon other greater demons of any type, including more powerful types that summon even more. Battles involving multiple demons tend to get epic. There is also the demonic quylthulg that summons exclusively greater demons.
Breeders are a related concept. These monsters do not use summon magic but rather reproduce themselves extremely quickly. Things like white lice can easily take over the level if they are not stopped before the numbers reach a point where more new lice are born each turn than the player can potentially kill in the same span of time.

The first three games of the Avernum remake series have a similar problem. The Arcane Summon spell will summon a handful of high-level monsters to fight for you. One of the possible results is the Vampire Lord monster, who could cast Arcane Summon. In the last three games, you have a limit on your summons (a maximum of two in Avernum 6). The enemy doesn't. Any battle with an enemy mage quickly turns into a long and tiring one (especially if your warriors need to be next to the mage to do any real damage).

The Elder Scrolls
This is a common trait of necromancers and enemy conjurers throughout the series. Though they themselves tend to be quite squishy, they'll start combat by summoning a lesser Daedra or some form of The Undead. Later games also give necromancers the ability to resurrect any dead bodies on the battlefield.
Dremora, an intelligent race of lesser Daedra, are known to summon other lesser Daedra to aid them in battle. Most commonly they summon Scamps, but they've been known to summon Atronachs, Clannfear, Daedroths, and Spider Daedra as well. Dremora themselves are typically capable melee opponents as well, making them all the more dangerous.
Spider Daedra, as their name might imply, are a Spider People form of lesser Daedra. Already powerful Magic Knights on their own, they can also summon weaker Spiderlings to aid them in battle.
Xivilai, a massive and powerful form of lesser Daedra, have the ability to summon Clannfear to aid them in battle.
In Oblivion, this is a trait of Skeleton Champions, which carry high-end claymores, and summon (and re-summon) a lower-tier skeleton. Skeleton Champions are Made of Iron, and their pet skeletons are dangerous in their own right, and easy to confuse for the Champion in the heat of battle meaning you could inflict the killing blow; and rather than taste victory, another skeleton is instantly spawned and the battle carries on.
In Skyrim's Dragonborn DLC, Seekers are a Cthulhumanoid form of lesser Daedra in service to Hermaeus Mora, the Daedric Prince of Knowledge. Seekers can summon a weaker clone of themselves to aid them in battle, and the clone will disintegrate if the Seeker is killed first.

Magic: The Gathering: Several cards have card abilities that summon more creatures (usually token creatures) if you fulfil its condition. An example towards the Logical Extreme is Polyraptor, which creates a copy of itself whenever it takes damage. These copies can also create copies of themselves. Alternately, there are other creatures that let you search creature cards out of your deck.

Warhammer:
Karanak is the alpha leader of Khorne's Flesh Hounds. When he has the scent of his prey, Karanak unleashes a daemonic howl that echoes across all the realms, calling his fellow hunting beasts so that they can join the pursuit. While this is part of his background material in all his incarnations, only the Warhammer: Age of Sigmar version of the three-headed hound represents this in game with the Call of the Hunt ability that allows it to summon new units of Flesh Hounds to the battlefield
Warhammer 40,000:
Necron Canoptek Spyders are able to manufacture swarms of robotic insects known as Canoptek Scarabs during a battle but have a 1 in 6 chance of damaging themselves if they do so.
Tyranid Tervigons are living incubators able to spawn new broods of Termagaunts to fight alongside the monstrous creature. On the downside, should the Tervigon be slain, all nearby Termagaunts suffer hits from the synaptic backlash.
The Malefic Daemonology psychic discipline allows almost any psyker to try this, at the cost of an extremely high risk of Perils of the Warp Oddly enough, the best force at doing this is not the Daemon psykers themselves, but the expendable psychic choirs of the Imperium, who hate daemons, but have the good sense to blow the psyker's head off before the daemons do it themselves, and have plenty of spares. An army properly set up for this can pull in versatile reserves onto anywhere from the battlefield, and some of those daemons can do MORE SUMMONING. In a standard six-turn game this isn't too big a deal, because at some point you need to stop summoning more psykers who are using all their power for recursive Daemons and actually kill the enemy, but in a big Apocalypse game or screened by some large blobs of Cultists or Conscripts then there can be three or four Greater Daemons with their own supporting buffers and infantry screens set up before you've managed to take down even the first few mages.

Monster Hunter 3 (Tri): The Qurupeco has this ability, by imitating the calls of other monsters. It usually calls groups of small monsters, but push it enough, and there's a good chance it'll decide to call in something much worse than it is. It'll also make it a note to call any other large monsters that are already present on the map over to its location, which can make dealing with it a serious pain. There is also one creature known as a Deviljho that naturally preys on the Qurupeco. Sometimes the Qurupeco will summon one of these to deal with you, only for the Deviljho to turn right around and slaughter it.

Exile:
The series has the ability to nest summons many times over. The mooks pop through the various Summon Monster spells (or even snazzier Soul Crystal Simulacrums) are quite likely to take the tactic and run with it. Summon a Demon, and you'll soon have it summon an Imp, which in turn summons a rat. The map can quickly get extremely cluttered as both sides form solid barriers of mooks between their respective casters, which only judicious (and satisfying!) use of area of effect spells can hope to resolve.
The first three games of the Avernum remake series have a similar problem. The Arcane Summon spell will summon a handful of high-level monsters to fight for you. One of the possible results is the Vampire Lord monster, who could cast Arcane Summon. In the last three games, you have a limit on your summons (a maximum of two in Avernum 6). The enemy doesn't. Any battle with an enemy mage quickly turns into a long and tiring one (especially if your warriors need to be next to the mage to do any real damage).
