Sceliphron madraspatanum (FABRICIUS, 1781) (102 ♀♀, 146 66)

N o t e: v. d. VECHT & v. BREUGEL (1968: 199) distinguished a number of more or less clearly defined subspecies. This variability is particularly expressed in the extent of the yellow markings. V.d. Vecht wrote: "The presence of populations which are transitional between neighbouring subspecies, as well as the frequent occurrence of aberrant specimens of some of the subspecies, make it impossible to construct a key which could cover all the variations of the colour patterns of the forms recognized here as subspecies". Therefore I do not use the names of these subspecies.
