Checklist and distribution patterns of apoid wasps (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Sphecidae and Crabronidae) of Cuba Author Genaro, Julio A. text Zootaxa 2006 2006-04-10 1171 47 68 journal article 27071 10.5281/zenodo.2645637 d012c38c-05b2-40ca-bba5-1753d6d8d543 1175-5326 2645637 1EA4A58F-C6AD-442B-93FE-19CE84660855 Tribe Crabronini 32. Rhopalum claviventre (Cresson, 1865) . Cuba . R. claviventre was mentioned from Dominica ( Evans 1972 ) based on one specimen that still has not been compared with the holotype . A previous record of R. claviventre for Grenada ( Ashmead 1900 ) actually refers to another species: R . grenadinum ( Pate) (Pate 1947 a ) . Gowdey (1926) recorded it from Jamaica but according to Pate (1947 a ) , who never examined the material, it may be another species. Until more specimens are studied I prefer to cite this species only for Cuba . It is clear that the genus is widely distributed in the Antilles, but its presence in collections is rare ( Leclercq 2002 ). More material is needed for a better understanding of the species that occur on each island. 33. Rhopalum soroanum (Alayo, 1968) . Cuba . 34. Rhopalum montanum (Alayo, 1968) . Cuba . 35. Rhopalum antillarum Leclercq, 1957 . Cuba , Ecuador and Venezuela . Described from one specimens labelled Cuba , still it is question by its author about the veracity of the label data ( Leclerq 2002 ). Alayo (1976) never collected it. Specimens studied by Leclerq (2002) from Ecuador and Venezuela vary in coloration. 36. Ectemnius (Apoctemnius) craesus (Lepeletier and Brullé, 1835) . Cuba , Jamaica , Hispaniola, Mona Island, Guana Island and Puerto Rico . 37. Ectemnius (Hypocrabro) auriceps (Cresson, 1865) . Cuba and Bahamas (San Salvador Island). 38. Ectemnius paluster Alayo, 1968 . Cuba . 39. Ectemnius ferrasi Alayo, 1968 . Cuba . 40. Ectemnius (Merospis) cyanauges Pate, 1941 . Cuba . 41. Lestica (Solenius) cubensis (Cresson, 1865) .
