Genus Trigonopsis Perty, 1833 View in CoL

No Trigonopsis cocoon has been described in detail. Vardy (1978) provided drawings of the cocoons of Trigonopsis cyclocephalus F. Smith, 1873 and T. violascens (Dalla Torre, 1897) and Arl é (1933), of Trigonopsis rufiventris (Fabricius, 1804) . From these illustrations one can recognise that (1) apparently the cocoons have only one capsule, like those of Podium , Penepodium and Sceliphron ; (2) there are no nipple-projections on the extremities; (3) the shape is similar to that of Podium and Sceliphron .
