Genus Omicron de Saussure View in CoL View at ENA
This is moderately sized genus, with more than 50 described species, most of which are South
American. Just one species has been previously described from the Antilles, O. lacerum Giordani Soika
from Santo Domingo ( Giordani Soika 1978). We have seen the holotype of O. lacerum in the MNHN, and it has metasomal terga I�II strongly punctate, whereas the new species has these terga smooth.
