Eopompilus luteus Lelej, 1986

Eopompilus luteus Lelej, 1986: 80, 81, ♂ (holotype), Russia: Primorskii Terr., Khasan District, Andreevka [Zoological Institute, St. Petersburg, Russia].

Cryptocheilus nicevilli Bingham: Kim, 1970: 557, pl. 53, fig. 638 (Ş, GG: Gwangleung), 806.

Diagnosis. Large-sized species, body length 15.0-20.0 mm in females, ca. 14 mm in males. In both sexes, almost entire body yellow and yellowish brown to ferruginous. In females, following parts darkened to black: median large quadrat of frons, ocellar region, medioapical part of vertex, anterior slope of pronotum, mesonotum except for a yellow broad median longitudinal mark, inner side of mesopleuron and middle parts of T1-4. Antennae, larger part of hind leg and apical part of metasoma yellowish brown to ferruginous. Lateral margin of clypeus somewhat concave, forming narrow lamina (narrower than that of E. minor). F1 5.8-6.3 times as long as broad. Fore tarsal claw with a submesal (before midpoint of claw) perpendicular tooth.

Male also very extensively marked, but black area more enlarged than in female, especially in metasoma. F1 4.0- 4.2 times as long as broad. Posterolateral production of S6 weak, S7 without production.

Remarks. The specimen identified as Cryptocheilus nicevilli in Kim (1970) was examined. It is undoubtedly conspecific with this species.
