Ammophilinae

Ammophila ferrugineipes, copyright Mark Jones.

Belongs within: Sphecidae.
Contains: Parapsammophila, Podalonia.

The Ammophilinae are a group of rather large wasps with a long, slender gaster and usually a long petiole (Bohart & Menke 1976).

Characters (from Bohart & Menke 1976, as Ammophilini): Sockets near middle of face and usually separated from frontoclypeal suture; male antenna without placoids; scape ovate to slender and parallel-sided; flagellomere I nearly always longer than II. Clypeus large, broader than long to longer than broad; labrum variable but usually broader than long. Mandible with one to three inner teeth, rarely simple; mandible socket commonly closed by paramandibular process of hypostoma. Maxillary palpal segment III symmetrical; hypostomal carina complete; occipital carina incomplete below, ending just short of hypostomal carina, or meeting hypostomal carina at or near its apex. Collar short to long. Propodeal enclosure usually present and defined by differential sculpture rather than a sulcus; spiracular groove absent; episternal sulcus usually long, extending to or nearly to anteroventral margin of pleuron; lower metapleural area usually present, defined by ridge or sulcus between upper and lower metapleural pits. Marginal cell apex variable; three submarginal cells usually present (rarely one or two); both recurrent veins usually received by submarginal cell II. Female with psammophore; midcoxae contiguous or nearly so; two apicoventral setae of hindtarsomere V setiform to moderately broad, blade-like, usually separated by three or more setal widths; inner margin of claw simple or with one or two basal teeth; tarsi usually without plantulae. Petiole usually consisting of sternum I only (tergum I occasionally part of petiole); tergum VIII without cerci; volsella with articulating digitus.
