A character analysis of the North American potter wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae; Eumeninae)

open access: yesJournal of Natural History, 1985
A cladistic analysis of the nearctic genera of Eumeninae is presented. The ground plan states of 43 character systems are discussed, and the first comprehensive cladogram for any significant portion of the subfamily is presented. At least eight of the 26 genera are apparently nonmonophyletic: Zethus, Montezumia, Euodynerus, Odynerus, Pterocheilus ...
