Treatment

PERU: San Martín Province, Tarapoto; 22 October 2022, 1135 AM; M. Montag. Host: Enoploctenus sp. ( Ctenidae ), adult or subadult female. The wasp stood beside the immobilized wandering spider as it laid dorsal aide upward with legs spread laterally on a large leaf. She then straddled the spider headfirst and grasped its left pedipalp or chelicera with her mandibles ( Montag 2022).

Enoploctenus sp. ( Ctenidae View in CoL ) is a new host genus for Priochilus gloriosum View in CoL . Other host spider families for P. gloriosum View in CoL include Trechaleidae View in CoL , Sparassidae View in CoL , and Theraphosidae View in CoL ( Kurczewski et al. 2020, 2022b).
