A systematic review of the Neotropical social wasp genus Angiopolybia Araujo, 1946 (Hymenoptera: Vespidae): species delimitation, morphological diagnosis, and geographical distribution

Abstract

For the Neotropical genusAngiopolybiaAraujo 1946, several phenotypic forms were previously described, however, they have not been studied within an integrative taxonomic framework. Here, we used molecular data (variation of two mitochondrial genetic markers with molecular species delimitation methods) and morphology (adult morphology, male genitalia, and scanning electron microscopy images) to test the number of species withinAngiopolybia. Specifically, we investigated the taxonomic validity of the morphological variantsA. pallensdark morph,A. paraensismorphparaensis,A. paraensismorphruficornis, andA. paraensismorphobscurior. Moreover, we reviewed the taxonomy and geographic distribution of the genus. Our results of morphological and molecular analyses are compatible with the current classification ofAngiopolybia, and we did not find reasons to propose the morphological variants ofA. pallensandA. paraensisas valid species. Additionally, we reassess the spatial range of the fourAngiopolybiaspecies and provide refined maps of their geographical distributions.
