Type species Dipogon populator Fox, 1897 , by original designation and monotypy.
Remarks. Species of this cosmopolitan genus are restricted to wooded areas. Females nest in twigs or aerial cavities. These wasps are rarely taken by conventional collecting methods, and several of the species are known from only a few specimens ( Evans & Leatherman 2002). Evans (1972) described one species from Dominica, the first been recorded to Caribbean. This is the first time that Dipogon is recorded from the Dominican Republic.
