“…Beside the 30 species listed by Buys (2009), the following 17 species of Sphecidae were found in Southeast Brazil, but were not recorded in the Rio de Janeiro State to date: Chlorion hemiprasinum (Sichel, 1863), C. hemipyrrum (Sichel, 1863); C. strandi Willinki, 1951; Eremnophila willinki (Menke, 1964); Penepodium brasiliense (Schrottky, 1903); P. egregium (Saussure, 1867); P. fallax (Kohl, 1902); P. hortivagans (Strand, 1910); P. junonion (Schrottky, 1903); P. paoloense (Schrottky, 1903) (Dalla Torre, 1897). In addition, it seems that there are a few other species of the genera Isodontia, Penepodium and Podium in Southeast Brazil, but they could not be accurately identified before the conclusion of taxonomic revisionary studies.…”
