“…Hymenoepimecis Viereck, 1912 is a genus of parasitoid wasps included in the Polysphincta group of genera, members of which are usually referred to as 'polysphinctines' (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Pimplinae) (Matsumoto 2016). The genus currently comprises 27 species, all of which are restricted to the Neotropical region (Yu et al 2016;Pádua et al 2020). Most species were previously reported to parasitize only one host species, but three species have been found to attack two host spiders each: H. heidyae Gauld, 1991: Kapogea cyrtophoroides (F. O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1904 and K. sexnotata (Simon, 1895) (Araneidae); H. japi : Leucauge roseosignata Mello-Leitão, 1943 and Mecynogea bigibba Simon, 1903 (Araneidae); H. veranii Loffredo & Penteado-Dias, 2009: Araneus omnicolor (Keyserling, 1893) and A. orgaos Levi, 1991 (Araneidae) (Gonzaga and Sobczak 2007;Sobczak et al 2014;Barrantes et al 2018;Eberhard and Gonzaga 2019).…”
