P. fassli spec. nov. (27 a) is larger and more robust than the form crabronis of the preceding species 
which it approaches very closely. It may at once be distinguished by the tibiae and tarsi being entirely yellow; 
the femora are velvety black, the hips yellow. Sides of the forehead silvery white, palpi quite black, very long¬ 
haired and beard-like. Collar and shoulder-covers are bordered with yellow; mesothorax and a transverse 
stripe on the metathorax, as well as a spot on the shoulder orange-yellow; the strangulated abdominal ring is 
posteriorly bordered with a light brown; the large, black ventral valve is laterally bordered with a silvery white, 
the abdomen otherwise purple-black. Antennae brown with a purple lustre, before the apex white-ringed. Wings 
as in crabronis. Expanse of wings: 38 to 40 mm. Described according to a number of fresh <3$ from the Rio 
Songo, Bolivia (Fassl). 
P. 40, line 28 from below, gracile is to be eliminated as synonymous; subsp. gracilis Klages is the form from Panama 
with black antennae with yellow tips, whereas angustatum has a carmine antennal shaft. 
P. 40, line 26 from below: nigrifer (not ,,nigriferum“) Dyar is a distinct species having the priority before: perconstricium 
Zerny (p. 40, line 23 from below) which thus -becomes synonymous. 
P. 40, line 2 from below, to meridionale add: (27 a).

S. alica Jones (28 1). Head and thorax blackish-brown with single, interspersed hairs of a leaden 
colour. Forehead bordered with whitish. Legs striped yellowish; the blackish-brown abdomen, on the 4th 
and 5th rings, exhibits yellow bands; the ventral side is whitish. The hyaline wings have fine, blackish-brown 
veins and margins, the forewings exhibit red-brown stripes at the costal and proximal margins. Expanse of 
wings: 20 mm. South Brazil.

S. linda Jones (27 b). Head and thorax are yellow, the latter striped black. The 3 first abdominal 
rings are red-yellow, the rest black, with yellow bands, on the ventral side all yellow and red-yellow. Wings 
hyaline with fine black veins and margins, the forewing with a reddish-brown costal margin and proximal 
margin. Expanse of wings: 26 mm. Brazil (Sao Paulo).

at the base black, the rest yellow; thorax yellow, striped black. The two first abdominal rings are yellow, striped 
black, the second at the base red-yellow, the others are black, curled yellow; venter yellow. The hyaline forewings 
with narrow black margins and veins are red-yellow at the costal margin and base of the proximal margin.

S. melissina Kaye extremely resembles semelina, being somewhat smaller and more orange-yellow 
on the thorax and abdomen, the latter with a black dorsal stripe and segmental indentations; the 3 first abdo¬ 
minal rings exhibit small black lateral stripes turned downward at the ends. Ventral valve yelloAv. The forewings 
also have a large black apical spot, the hindwings are yellow in the cell and at the base of the proximal margin.
