Pompilocalus nemequene Roig-Alsina View in CoL

COLOMBIA: Risaralda Department. Marsella County, Belalcazar Municipality, Caldas; 24 January 2023, 1437 PM; J. D. Arango. Host: Strophaeus sp. ( Barychelidae ), juvenile. The wasp entered the spider’s burrow with the trapdoor partly open and must have enticed or chased the brush-footed trapdoor spider onto the ground surface whereupon she stung and immobilized it. The wasp then grasped the spider by its right hind coxa-trochanter joint with her mandibles and began dragging it backwards across the ground, possibly into its own burrow ( Arango 2023a).

Strophaeus sp. ( Barychelidae View in CoL ) is a new host family and genus for Pompilocalus nemequene View in CoL . Two previous host records for P. nemequene View in CoL from Bolivia and Colombia are for species of Ctenidae View in CoL ( Kurczewski et al. 2020, 2022b).
