The Genus Euparagia Cresson (Hymenoptera: Vespidae; Euparagiinae)

A new species of the wasp genus Euparagia Cresson, 1879, is described: unidentata Carpenter and Kimsey. The phylogenetic relationships of this and the other species in the genus are analyzed cladistically. A key to and catalog of the species are provided.
