First records of two Amazonian species of Zethus (Zethoides) Fox, 1899 (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Eumeninae) in Atlantic Forest fragments in São Paulo state, Brazil

Zethus Fabricius, 1804 is the largest genus in the subfamily Eumeninae with over 250 species. Its Neotropical representatives are divided into three subgenera: Z. (Zethus) Fabricius, 1804; Z. (Zethusculus) de Saussure, 1855; and Z. (Zethoides) Fox, 1899. Two specimens were collected in the northeast...
