Caliadurgus
''Caliadurgus'' is a genus of spider wasps of the subfamily Pepsinae. These are medium-sized black spider wasps with some red. They have a catholic habitat choice and their preferred prey are spiders of the families Araneidae and Tetragnathidae. They have a Holarctic and Neotropical distribution. Taxonomy The genus name ''Caliadurgus'' was proposed originally by Pate in 1946 as a replacement for a preoccupied name, ''Calicurgus'', published by Lepeletier in 1845. However, Pate explicitly selected ''Sphex hyalinata'' as the type species, while Kohl had selected ''Pompilus fasciatellus'' to be the type of Lepeletier's genus. Pate and others mistakenly thought that ''fasciatellus'' and ''hyalinata'' were the same species, but later researchers discovered that these were two different taxa, one now known as ''Caliadurgus fasciatellus'' and the other now known as ''Priocnemis hyalinata''. However, under the ICZN, Article 67.8, the type species of a replacement name is the same as ...

Caliadurgus Fasciatellus
''Caliadurgus fasciatellus'' is a species of spider wasp from the subfamily Pepsinae found from Western Europe to the Far East of Asia. Taxonomy The name ''Caliadurgus'' was proposed originally by Pate in 1946 as a replacement for a preoccupied name, ''Calicurgus'', published by Lepeletier in 1845. However, Pate explicitly selected ''Sphex hyalinata'' as the type species, while Kohl had selected ''Pompilus fasciatellus'' to be the type of Lepeletier's genus.

Description ''C. fasciatellus'' reaches in length. The 1st and 2nd segments of the abdomen are brownish red with white spurs in the middle and hind legs. Distribution In Europe found from Great Britain east to Russia and Finland south to Spain and the Balkans. ...

Spider Wasp
Wasps in the family Pompilidae are commonly called spider wasps, spider-hunting wasps, or pompilid wasps. The family is cosmopolitan, with some 5,000 species in six subfamilies. Nearly all species are solitary (with the exception of some group-nesting Ageniellini), and most capture and paralyze prey, though members of the subfamily Ceropalinae are kleptoparasites of other pompilids, or ectoparasitoids of living spiders. In South America, species may be referred to colloquially as or , though these names can be generally applied to any very large stinging wasps. Furthermore, in some parts of Venezuela and Colombia, it is called , or "horse killers", while in Brazil some particular bigger and brighter species of the general kind might be called /, or "throat locker". Morphology Like other strong fliers, pompilids have a thorax modified for efficient flight. The metathorax is solidly fused to the pronotum and mesothorax; moreover, the prothorax is best developed in Pompili ...
