Description

Anoplius Dufour, 1834

Type species Sphex nigerrima Scopoli, 1763, designated by ICZN (1973).

Remarks. This is one of the most species-rich genera in Pompilinae. It has a cosmopolitan distribution with six subgenera found in the Neotropics (Evans 1966). Four of these (Anoplius Dufour, 1834, Arachnophroctonus Howard, 1901, and Notiochares Banks, 1917) have been reported for the Dominican Republic (Wasbauer & Kimsey 1985; Evans 1966; Snelling & Torres 2004). Except for Anoplius, these subgenera have a tarsal comb, and each has a single species record from the Dominican Republic.
