Abstract

ABSTRACT Pompilidae are a cosmopolitan family of aculeate parasitoid wasps with 24 extinct species. Here, we provide a new species description for an enigmatic species of Pepsinae: Paleogenia indomini Colombo & Waichert sp. nov. The new taxon is easily distinguished from congeners by having a long tibial spur, ~0.8× longer than the first tarsomere, and by the presence of a large basal pale line extending medially on the clypeus. A key for the species of Paleogenia is provided. zoobank.org:pub:1C8D3CD5-1215-46B1-9742-658B2A50A40C zoobank.org:act:E1E412D6-6D1F-49E9-B62C-F620CE500D5F
