Abstract

TraumatomutillaAndré, 1901 is a genus of Mutillidae Latreille, 1802 with 14 species-groups, of which the T. gemella group is one of the most poorly known. The hitherto unknown males of Traumatomutilla diophthalma (Klug, 1821), T. chuzaCasal, 1969, and T. gemellaAndré, 1906 are described and illustrated. The females of T. andrei (Cresson, 1902), T. angustata (André, 1906), T. chuzaCasal, 1969, T. diopthalma (Klug, 1821), and T. gemella (André, 1906) are redescribed. A new species, T. peismatara Bartholomay & Cambra, n. sp. (female from Peru, male from Brazil) is described. Two host records (Podium sp. from Sphecidae Latreille, 1802 and Trypoxylon sp. from Crabronidae Latreille, 1802) are provided for T. diophthalma based on trap nest data. Traumatomutilla rastraCasal, 1969 is recognized as a new synonym of T. angustata (André, 1906).
