Climaciella includes nine species distributed from southeastern Canada to northern Argentina, encompassing Caribbean Islands, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico ( Hoffman 2002). In this paper we registered four species C. amapaensis , C. obtusa , C. porosa , and C. semihyalina .
The biology of this genus is known from the works on C. brunnea Say , a polymorphic species distributed in Central- and North America. In Costa Rica were reported five distinct color morphs, each one being a batesian mimic of a different wasps of the subfamily Polistinae ( Opler 1981) . This species is considered an obligate boarder in its first larval instar and has a special preference for spiders of the family Lycosidae ( Lasalle 1986; Redborg & MacLeod 1983; Redborg & Redborg 2000).
