Characters of the male genitalia are combined with morphological characters of the females and nests and used in a phylogenetic analysis. The single cladogram resulting supports monophyly of the genus Pseudopolybia and interrelationships among the species as: P. langi + (P. difficilis + (P. compressa + P. vespiceps)). A new, illustrated identification key is presented.443469 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3586 2007Pseudopolybia -- Phylogeny.Pseudopolybia vespiceps -- Generative organs.Generative organs, Male.PseudopolybiaWasps -- Phylogeny.Wasps -- Latin AmericaInsects -- Latin AmericaPhylogenetic analysis of the neotropical Pseudopolybia de Saussure, 1863, with description of the male genitalia of Pseudopolybia vespiceps (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Epiponini) ; American Museum novitates, no. 3586Phylogeny of Pseudopolybia waspstext
