BRAZIL: Rio de Janeiro State; Nova Iguaçu; Tinguá Biological Reserve; 16 December 2022; D. Luiz. Host: Idiops camelus (Mello-Leitão) ( Idiopidae ), adult female. The wasp stood beside the immobilized armored trapdoor spi- der and examined it with her antennae and mouthparts as it laid ventral side upward or on its right side on the ground ( Luiz 2022).
The genus Idiops Perty has been captured by Pepsis smaragdina before in Brazil ( Vardy 2005). Idiops camelus , however, is a new host species for P. smaragdina .
