Priocnemella hexagona (Fox) View in CoL

BRAZIL: Rondônia State, National Forest of Jamari; 23 May 2021; P. P. M. Nascimento. Host: Phoneutria ? fera Perty (Ctenidae) , juvenile. The wasp straddled and carried the delimbed paralyzed banana spider, dorsal side upward, grasping the base of its chelicera with her mandibles. She walked over leaf litter, then, holding the spider, disappeared into a small hole in the ground ( Fig. 12 View Figures 9–16 ; Nascimento 2021; Nascimento, Machadinho d’Oeste, State of Rondônia, Brazil, 2021 pers. comm.).
