Caliadurgus Pate, 1946 View in CoL View at ENA ( Calicurgus Lepeletier, 1845 )
Type species Pompilus fasciatellus Spinola, 1808 View in CoL , by automatic designation (see Calicurgus Lepeletier,
1845, nec Brullé, 1833).
Remarks. Species of Caliadurgus are usually parasites of orb weaving spiders. It is present in all but the Australian zoogeographic region. Although this is a well-represented genus in the Neotropics ( Townes 1957), only one species occurs in the Caribbean. This is the first record of this genus for the Dominican Republic.
