14. Genus Mutilla Linnaeus, 1758

Type species: Mutilla europaea Linnaeus, 1758 , ♀, by subsequent designation of Latreille 1810: 437.

Hundreds of species in the Old World have been described in the genus Mutilla ( André 1902b) , but they belong to different genera, and even to different tribes and subfamilies. Mutilla species were recently catalogued in the Palaearctic (ten species— Lelej 2002), and in the Oriental region (four species— Lelej 2005), but have not been recently examined in the Afrotropical region (142 species— Bischoff 1920). Two species of this genus are distributed in Azerbaijan.
