Sp. Sphex sabulosa L. (Ammophila), Panzer, Deutschl. Ins. Heft 65. Tab. 
12, &e. 
Pompilus Fasr. Prothorax produced as far as anterior wings, 
subquadrate, not narrower forward. Abdomen with very short 
petiole. Posterior feet long, ciliated on the inner margin. Cubital 
cells three, or two, alone. Antenne as in the preceding genus. 
Sub-genera: Aporus Spinoza, Planiceps Latr., Pompilus Latr., 
Ceropales Latr., Fasr., Pepsis Fasr. (in part), Lar.

Sapyga Larr., Hellus Fasr. Prothorax transverse, produced 
to anterior wings. Abdomen elongate, shortly petiolate. Labrum 
not or scarcely exsert. Mandibles strong. Eyes emarginate (lunate). 
Antenne of length of head and thorax at the least, towards the 
apex thicker or sub-clavate. Feet short, slender, with smooth 
tibie. 
Sp. Sapyga quinquepunctata Latr., Gener. Crust. et Ins. Tab. xitt. fig. 9, 
(of which perhaps Sapyga varia, Encycl. méth. and Guérin, Iconogr. Ins. 
Pl. 69, fig. 11, is merely, as LEPELETIER supposes, a variety), habit. in 
France. 
Note.—Genus Polochrum Srinota, unknown to me, differs from Sapyga 
by its antennee filiform. 
Here also were referred formerly genera Thynnus Fasr. (in part), LAtR., 
and Scotena Latr. Partly at least they belong to the Mutillaria, and contain 
males of genus Myrmecoda. Comp. also genus Amblysoma Wustw. and 
Anodontyra ejusd., GUERIN, Magas. de Zool. 1841, Ins. Pl. 80, 8r; females 
are unknown. 
Scolia Fapr. Prothorax produced laterally as far as wings,-as 
in the preceding genus. Eyes emarginate, reniform. Antenne 
thick, filiform, in males almost of the length of head and thorax,
