Auplopus subaurarius Dreisbach

BRAZIL: State of Espírito Santo, Marechal Floriano; 12 May 2020; C. Waichert. Host:? Aysha sp. ( Anyphaenidae ), adult or subadult females. The wasp made four nest cells, over a period of several days, under a desk inside the residence. The wasp never returned. Several days later, one of the nest cells was opened to reveal paralyzed, partially delimbed host spiders of what appeared to be all the same-sized species (C.
