BRAZIL: Amazonas State, 40 km N Manaus, INPA Experimental Station - ZF2; 31 January 2023; T. Mahlmann. Host: Bumba horrida (Schmidt) ( Theraphosidae ) (Brazilian redhead tarantula), adult or subadult female. The wasp pulled the paralyzed tarantula backwards across low branches, dorsal side upward, grasping the base of its right foreleg with her mandibles ( Mahlmann 2023).
There is a previous host record from French Guiana for P.plutus with an armed spider of the genus Phoneutria Perty ( Ctenidae ) ( Kurczewski et al. 2022b).
