Anoplius Dufour, 1834 View in CoL View at ENA

Type species Sphex nigerrima Scopoli, 1763 , designated by ICZN (1973).

Remarks. This is one of the most species-rich genera in Pompilinae . It has a cosmopolitan distribution with six subgenera found in the Neotropics ( Evans 1966). Four of these ( Anoplius Dufour, 1834 , Arachnophroctonus Howard, 1901, and Notiochares Banks, 1917) have been reported for the Dominican Republic ( Wasbauer & Kimsey 1985; Evans 1966; Snelling & Torres 2004). Except for Anoplius , these subgenera have a tarsal comb, and each has a single species record from the Dominican Republic.
