            <p> 3.1. Revision of  Angiopolybia Araujo, 1946</p>
            <p> Rhopalidia Lepeletier, 1836: 538 (a genus with two species); ICZN, 1976: 240, 241 (Opinion 1051 - suppressed under the powers of the plenary,  nº . 2072 in the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Generic Names in Zoology). Type species,  Rhopalidia pallens Lepeletier, 1836, subsequent designation by Schulz, 1912: 60. </p>
            <p> Angiopolybia Araujo, 1946: 166, 169 (designation of new name for  Stelopolybia Ducke, 1914). Specie-type,  Rhopalidia pallens Lepeletier, 1836 (original designation). </p>
            <p> Stelopolybia (Angiopolybia) Richards and Richards, 1951: 69; Richards, 1973: 49 (suppression of  Rhopalidia Lepeletier, 1836 by ICZN, 1976). </p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p>Lateral ocellus separated from the eye by two times its diameter. Compound eyes with bristles. Clypeus with acute apex, lateral margins parallel in part upper and rectangular lateral lobes. Short malar space. Occiput with carina. Labial palpus with four segments. Proepisternum with reduced lateral carina. Pronotal carina limited to a small length in the center of the pronotum and acute. Pronotum with lateral fovea. Mesoscutum with reduced posterolateral lamella. Dorsal groove of the mesoepisternum present and transverse to the sclerite. Metasomal tergum I, in dorsal view, with lateral margins diverging gradually from the base to apex.</p>
            <p>Additional comments.</p>
            <p> Considering the  Gymnopolybia description (currently  Agelaia ) from  Stelopolybia species (currently  Angiopolybia ) by Ducke (1914), these genera are not well-defined by the proposed characters. Based on this, some morphological characters that had been proposed to separate  Angiopolybia from  Agelaia such as stelocyttarous nest (with envelope) (Ducke 1914), very weak or absent occipital carina (Richards 1943), and flat metapleural basalar area (Richards 1978; Andena et al. 2007) were not considered here because they are not exclusive to  Angiopolybia , since they are present in few species of  Agelaia . Moreover, the scutellum with line or depression (Richards 1943; Andena et al. 2007) was not considered because they are not exclusive to  Agelaia , since some  Angiopolybia species present the line, despite it is inconspicuous. Richards (1943) commented that the characters determined by him, isolated, had no effect on separating the taxa. </p>
            <p> Based on previous and this study,  A. pallens and  A. zischkai are closer, as are  A. paraensis and  A. obidensis .  Angiopolybia pallens and  A. zischkai are distinguished by rounded gena and propodeum with posterior submedian translucent mark inserted in a depression, whereas the other species have angled gena and submedian translucent mark of the propodeum not inserted in a depression. We documented other differences in the step 1 of the identification key for the genus (see below). </p>
            <p>Geographic distribution.</p>
            <p>Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Panama, Peru, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela.</p>

            <p> The nest of  A. pallens was initially described by  Möbius (1856) for  Polybia ampullaria (junior synonym of the taxon), and later described by Wenzel (1998) as a nest with a flask-shaped envelope and with a long downward entrance with its hole horizontally; pedicel initially single and later being able to be multiple; flexible card with long fibers, usually yellow or amber; and adjacent combs, suspended or fused from each other and without contact with the envelope. Additionally, the following nest variation was found: built on an irregular substrate (thin branch with several leaves), connected to the substrate by a central pedicel (thick) and several support pedicels (fines); 11 combs overlapping and also connected by a central pedicel and multiple support, with the third and fourth combs with the largest circumferences and combs decreasing in circumference towards the ends, and without contact with the envelope; hexagonal cells of the combs with diameter of 2.5 mm; single envelope with long fibers arranged longitudinally, circumference gradually decreasing towards the entrance and without entrance of tubular shape. </p>
            <p>Comparative comments.</p>
            <p> Angiopolybia pallens is distinguished by the presence of a lobe in the lateroanterior region of the pronotum, absent in  A. zischkai , and metapleural basalar area with parallel upper and lower margins, diverging in  A. zischkai . Some  A. pallens specimens can be confused with  A. zischkai because it can resemble the typical form of  A. zischkai , of color darker. </p>
            <p>Additional comments.</p>
            <p> Despite the geographic disjunction by thousand kilometers in the distribution of  A. pallens between the Amazon and Atlantic Forest (Carvalho et al. 2014, 2021), considering the morphological analysis of specimens collected in both biomes, we verified that the differences, when found, are very subtle and follow the variation found between different populations. Considering the populations from the Atlantic Forest, the color varied from yellow with brown marks to completely brown, while among the populations from the Amazon Forest it varied from black with yellow marks to yellowish brown, with some forms existing in both biomes. The occipital carina present in  A. pallens , despite weak or not, found in this study not reported by Richards (1978) and Andena et al. (2007). They treated the occipital carina absent for the taxon. The prestigma longer than wide, also, was not cited by Richards (1978) and Andena et al. (2007). However, this character was found by Silveira and Carpenter (1995) for some specimens, and here we also found the two forms, prestigma about as long as wide and longer than wide. The redescription of  A. pallens was made based on the lectotype of  Polybia infernalis de Saussure, 1854 (junior synonym of  A. pallens ). The information about the male specimen described is: BRA, Roraima,  Amajarí , Serra do  Tepequém , SESC  Tepequém . 1-16.i.2016 /  Malaise grande, J.A. Rafael, F.F. Xavier Filho col. </p>

            <p>Morphological variation (Fig. 7j-l).</p>
            <p> Anterior wing of 13-15 mm; posterior wing of 13-19 hamuli;  Angiopolybia paraensis occurs in three color variants, identified by Richards (1978) as  A. paraensis morph  Angiopolybia paraensis (yellow specimens),  A. paraensis morph  Polybia ruficornis (brown and yellow specimens) and  A. paraensis morph  Angiopolybia obscurior (brown specimens).  Angiopolybia paraensis show small changes between yellow populations and between brown and yellow populations, such as a slightly darker color or some yellow marks, respectively, but they are well-defined. Despite the color variation, the morphological characteristics of female and male adults, and male genitalia used in the description are preserved in the three forms, so they should not be treated as subspecies or differentiated as morphs. Only a few  A. paraensis populations, with dark brown color from French Guiana and Suriname, showed morphological variations such as the absence of very long bristles in the posterior margin of the metasomal tergum II and propodeum with a region anterior to the spiracle less projected in the metapleural basalar area. However, we believe that this evidence is still insufficient to justify a new species. Moreover, the analysis of species delimitation with molecular data (see below) showed that these variants are within the intraspecific limits of  A. paraensis . </p>
            <p>Nest.</p>
            <p>Described by Schulz (1903) as a spherical nest about 25 mm in diameter (possibly incorrect unit of measurement was used, with centimeter (cm) being the correct). Ducke (1910) complements the description of Schulz (1903), stating that the nest is composed of four overlapping combs, joined by a central pedicel, with a simple and very resistant envelope, and with transverse streaked with light and dark colors.</p>
            <p>Comparative comments.</p>
            <p> Angiopolybia paraensis resembles  A. obidensis , but it is distinguished by the pronotum with low lamella in the anterior margin (one fifth of the height of antennal socket), being high lamella (one third of the height of antennal socket) in  A. obidensis ; pronotum with a slight prominence in front of the fovea, but prominence absent in  A. obidensis ; gena not enlarged in the upper region, but enlarged in the upper region in  A. obidensis ; parameral spine curved upwards, but straight parameral spine in  A. obidensis ; aedeagus with the apex of the lateral apodeme dorsoventrally flattened, but apex not flattened in  A. obidensis . </p>
            <p>Additional comments.</p>
            <p> Angiopolybia paraensis was described by Spinola (1851) and his type specimen (or specimens) was deposited in the Museo Regionale di Scienze Naturali di Torino (MRSN, Torino, Italy). Richards (1978) did not find any  A. paraensis type specimen during his study about the social wasps of the Americas, and we did not receive any answer from the Museum about the type specimen. Additionally, on the online page Checklist of  Epiponini wasps (http://iunh2.sci.ibaraki.ac.jp/wasp/Epiponini/epiponini.htm; consulted in 2021) produced by Dr. James M. Carpenter, the presence of the type specimen in the  Museum’s collection is also uncertain. Based on this, the redescription of the species was carried out using a specimen identified by Ducke in 1909 and from the same locality of the type specimen (Brazil,  Pará , 26.9.1901, Ducke /  Polybia paraensis Spin. ♀, det. Ducke 1909 / Brazil., Mus.Goeldi., 1910-90. (1 ♀, NHM)). The information about the male specimen described is: BRA, Roraima,  Amajarí , Serra do  Tepequém , SESC  Tepequém . 1-15.iii.2016 /  Malaise grande, J.A. Rafael, F.F. Xavier Filho col. </p>
            <p> Although some checklists treat  A. paraensis as registered for Bahia state [for example, the Checklist of  Epiponini wasps produced by Dr. James M. Carpenter (http://iunh2.sci.ibaraki.ac.jp/wasp/Epiponini/epiponini.htm; consulted in 2021) and Barbosa et al. (2016)], we did not confirm this information. </p>

            <p>Comparative comments.</p>
            <p> Angiopolybia zischkai resembles  A. pallens , but it is distinguished by the pronotum without a developed lobe in the lateroanterior region, which is present in  A. pallens ; metapleural basalar area with divergent upper and lower margins, which are parallel in  A. pallens ; and pronotal fovea with translucent mark of elliptical shape, which is circular in  A. pallens . </p>
            <p>Additional comments.</p>
            <p> One specimen designated as holotype of  Angiopolybia brunnescens (Fig. 7h) but not described by Richards (specimen deposited in the NHM) is an  A. zischkai specimen with more yellowish coloration, similar to the color of some  A. pallens . The two specimens with the labels: Paratype / PERU: 1.609, Maracapata [Marcapata] (  Perú ) /  Stelopolybia infernalis Ducke rev.11. [1911] (1 ♂, MZUSP), and 1.609, Maracapata [Marcapata] (  Perú ) /  Stelopolybia infernalis Ducke rev.11.
