Remarks. One Mexican specimen was compared with the holotype of S. espinozai Gauld from Costa Rica, and these specimens were found to be very similar, except the propodeum which is more or less entirely black in S. espinozai and predominantly red in Mexican specimens. Scambus espinozai probably is a junior synonym of S. albipes but we do not synonymize this species here while the Nearctic material of S. albipes is not studied.
