Extract

The dominant genus of Larrine wasps in warm countries throughout the world is Motes Kohl (olim Notogonia Costa seu Notogonidea Rohwer), but it is rather poorly represented in the Nearctic fauna. Hitherto only five species have been recorded from the United States: argentatus (Palisot de Beauvois), 1811, aequalis (Fox), 1893, nigripennis (Fox), 1893, occidentalis (Viereck), 1902, and subaequalis (Rohwer) 1909. To this roster may now be added the following two very distinctive southern forms.
