Key to species of Coelioxoides View in CoL

[Modified from Roig-Alsina (1990)]

1 Forewing with a hyaline band extending from the apex of marginal cell to at least the apex of second medial cell ( Fig. 3A View FIGURE 3 ). Females: S6 apex bifid ( Fig. 3B View FIGURE 3 ). Males: S6 disc covered with pale, subappressed, and plumose hairs................... 2

- Forewing with an elliptical hyaline spot beyond the apex of marginal cell ( Fig. 3C View FIGURE 3 ). Females: S6 apex cylindrical, subacute ( Fig. 3D View FIGURE 3 ). Males: S6 disc covered with brownish, subappressed, and plumose hairs................................. 3

2 Gena, lateral margins of scutellum, metanotum, and propodeum ( Fig. 4A View FIGURE 4 ) with conspicuous patches of pale pubescence. Apical fasciae of metasomal terga with pale, plumose hairs. Second abscissa of M+Cu of hindwing 4–4.5 times as long as cu-v. Females: S5 with a discrete ridge medially, never carinate ( Fig. 4B View FIGURE 4 ). Males: S4–S5 apical margins slightly concave, with dense fringes of brown, long, curved apically hairs ( Fig. 4C View FIGURE 4 ) (Brazil)....................... Coelioxoides piscicauda View in CoL sp. nov.

- Gena, lateral margins of scutellum, metanotum, and propodeum ( Fig. 4D View FIGURE 4 ) with inconspicuous pale and/or dark brown pubescence. Apical fasciae of metasomal terga indistinct, narrow to absent. Second abscissa of M+Cu of hindwing 6 times as long as cu-v. Females: S5 carinate medially ( Fig. 4E View FIGURE 4 ). Males: S4–S5 apical margins projected medially into hairy, pointed triangle processes ( Fig. 4F View FIGURE 4 ) (South America)............................................... Coelioxoides exulans (Holmberg) View in CoL

3 Gena with dense patch of pale pubescence along eye. Scutellum with dense, conspicuous patches of pale pubescence on lateral margins ( Fig. 5A View FIGURE 5 ). Apical fascia on T1 uniform or narrowed medially. Depression before pronotal lobe oval, 2–2.75 times as long as broad ( Fig. 5B View FIGURE 5 ). Males: S4–S5 apical margins with dense fringes of brown, curved apically hairs ( Fig. 5C View FIGURE 5 ); Apical processes of T7 hidden by long, dark drown pubescence ( Mexico, Central America )........ Coelioxoides punctipennis Cresson View in CoL

- Gena with scattered brownish hairs along eye. Scutellum with inconspicuous patches of blackish pubescence or few pale hairs on lateral margins ( Fig. 5D View FIGURE 5 ). Apical fascia on T1 enlarged medially. Depression before pronotal lobe elongate, 4–4.5 times as long as broad ( Fig. 5E View FIGURE 5 ). Males: S4–S5 apical margins with inconspicuous fringes of brown, straight hairs, barely surpassing apical margin of sterna ( Fig. 5F View FIGURE 5 ); Apical processes of T7 exposed, never hidden by dark brown pubescence (South America).............................................................................
