“…To date, two mitogenomes of Eumeninae have been published, which is insufficient to explore phylogenetic relationships [ 18 ]. In China, which spans two faunal regions (Palearctic and Oriental Regions), there is a total of more than 310 known species and subspecies in 58 genera of the subfamily Eumeninae [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ], which constitutes a quarter of the total genera of the world. To clarify the phylogenetic relationships within Eumeninae, especially the placement of Zethini, 52 new mitogenomes of 33 genera of Eumeninae from China are obtained and analyzed by combining 35 published vespid mitogenomes in this study.…”

The subfamily Eumeninae plays a significant role in the biological control of agricultural pests. However, the characteristics of eumenine mitogenomes that are important molecular markers for phylogenetics are not clearly revealed. Here, 52 eumenine mitogenomes are newly sequenced and annotated, and the phylogenetic relationships of the subfamily are comprehensively analyzed based on 87 vespid mitogenomes. Through the comparative analysis of the 54 eumenine mitogenomes, the gene compositions of about one half of the 54 species match with ancestral insect mitogenome, and remaining others contain two trnM which are highly similar, with 51.86% (Eumenes tripunctatus) to 90.65% (Pseumenes nigripectus) sequence identities, which is unique among the reported mitogenomes of the family Vespidae. Moreover, the translocation trnL1 upstream of nad1 is a common rearrangement event in all eumenine mitogenomes. The results of phylogenetic analyses support the paraphyly of the subfamily Eumeninae and the tribe Odynerini, respectively, and the monophyly of the tribe Eumenini, and verify that the tribe Zethini is a valid subfamily Zethinae. In this study, the relationships between some genera such as Allorhynchium and Pararrhynchium or the taxonomic status of the subgenera such as Eremodynerus and Dirhynchium are found to be confusing and there should be further inquiry with more samples.

“…Unfortunately, the record by Lee (1985) was overlooked by Zhou et al (2011) and Nguyen and Xu (2017). Up to the present, there are only four species recorded from China (Lee 1985, Nguyen and Xu 2017, Yeh and Lu 2017, Tan et al 2018. In this paper, two additional species, Z. velamellatus Tan, sp.…”

The distribution of Zethus Fabicius, 1804, in the Oriental and Palaearctic regions is discussed, with special reference to the northeastern Oriental species. A newly discovered species, Z. velamellatus Tan, sp. n. from China (Zhejiang), is described and illustrated. The first key to species of Zethus Fabricius from China is presented. Zethus nigerrimus Gusenleitner, 2001 is recorded for the first time from China and redescribed.

“…The subfamily Eumeninae, commonly known as potter wasps, is the most speciesrich group among the vespid wasps (Hymenoptera, Vespidae). This cosmopolitan subfamily consists of more than 3,800 described species of solitary (or rarely subsocial) wasps in approximately 200 genera (Tan et al 2018;Kumar et al 2019;Li et al 2019); the latest numbers published by Rahmani et al (2020) are 3,844 species in 204 genera. According to the results of molecular phlylogenetic reconstructions (Bank et al 2017;Piekarski et al 2018), the eumenine wasps, however, should be subdivided into three subfamilies: Raphiglossinae, Zethinae, and Eumeninae s. str.…”

New additions to the knowledge of the subfamily Eumeninae in Russia are provided. Stenodynerus rossicus Fateryga & Kochetkov, sp. nov. is described from Amurskaya Province and Altai Republic. Three species of eumenine wasps are reported from Russia for the first time: Onychopterocheilus kiritshenkoi (Kostylev, 1940), Pterocheilus quaesitus (Morawitz, 1895), and Stenodynerus chitgarensis Giordani Soika, 1970. Ancistrocerus dusmetiolus (Strand, 1914) is excluded from the fauna of Russia; the previous records of this species were based on a misidentification of another similar species, i. e., A. raddei (Kostylev, 1940). The taxonomic status of A. raddei, however, is unclear: its differences from A. dusmetiolus, including the material from Central Asia described as A. alius (Kostylev, 1935), are mainly in the color pattern but not in the structure (including the structure of the male genitalia). New and confirmative regional records for 20 species are reported. The known fauna of Russia currently numbers 34 genera and 165 species of Eumeninae s. l. (including Raphiglossinae and Zethinae). In addition, Eumenes tripunctatus (Christ, 1791) is reported for the first time from Afghanistan; the first data on the nesting of this species are also reported.
