Abstract: (440 Views)
Range extension of the square-headed wasp, Vechtia rugosa (F. Smith, 1858), which is primarily the Southeast Asian species, towards India is presented. A key to species and subspecies of the genus Vechtia Pate, 1944 is also provided with illustrations of V. rugosa rugosa (F. Smith, 1858). The known distribution of the Vechtia species in Southeastern Asia is also discussed.
