Abstract
This paper, a continuation of previous studies (Kurczewski, 1961 and 1962) on the prey and prey transportation of spider wasps of eastern United States, presents several new host relationships made in June and July, 1962, in Highlands and DeSoto Counties, Florida. The prey records for Cryptocheilus i. idoneum Banks and Anoplius (Arachnophroctonus) americanus trifasciatus (Beauvois) are the first for these subspecies in North America. Ageniella (Ageniella) partita Banks using prey without having amputated any of its legs is of interest. Priocnemis (Priocnemis) cornica (Say) and Episyron posterus (Fox) have not been studied biologically in Florida and new prey records for these species are included. As with previous prey, spiders are filed with the number in parenthesis following the specific determination2; these specimens have been deposited in the American Museum of Natural History. I am grateful to Wilton Ivie for identifying the prey spiders, to Richard Archbold for providing the research facilities of the Archbold Biological Station, Lake Placid, Florida, and to Dr. William T. Keeton for reading the manuscript critically. Funds, in part, for this study were provided by a Sigma Xi RESA Grant-in-Aid of Research. SUBFAMILY PEPSINAE
