Diagnosis and comments. This species is readily recognizable for its opaque and setae-free clypeus, triangular S1, very marked and apically concentrated macropunctation on T2, very prominent apical propodeal lamella, slightly concave propodeal declivity, largely puncture-free tegula, weak transverse carina on T1 and largely black body covered with a thin grayish pilosity and grayish hyaline wings with blackened costal region, a color pattern reminiscent of the widespread and common social wasp Polybia ignobilis . The type of Odynerus paraguayensis Brèthes was not examined, but from the description, the provenance of the specimen and the precedent synonymy established by Bertoni (1918a) and Carpenter & van der Vecht (1991), there is no doubt about its status.

Redescription. FEMALE. Color pattern. Black integument with pale yellow as follows: short inner orbit; small suffusion on the hind margin of pronotum; anterior and posterior tegular angles, united by a very thin outer marginal line; medially interrupted metanotal band; small and diffuse mesepisternal and metapleural precoxal spots; inner face of fore femur and tibia; diffuse apical ring on all femora; anterior (diffuse or even absent) line along mid and hind tibiae; very thin posterior and lateral margin of T1; S1 on all its margins. There can be brown areas as follows: flagellum ventrally from F5 to the apex; sometimes a diffuse subapical area on the mandible; some very dark suffusion on tibiae and tarsi; dark and very thin and suffuse posterior margin of metasomal segments 2–6. Fore wing membrane mostly grayish (lighter at tips) but black along the costal region. Fore wing venation brownish black.

Measurements and proportions. Body length 12.2 mm. Wing length 11 mm. Clypeus 1.03 × widen than high and with its apical margin 1.08 × wider than the interantennal distance. T1 as wide as long and 0.71 × as wide as T2. S1 wide triangular: 2.11 × wider than its medial length and 1.59 × wider than its total length.

Structure. Clypeus differing from that of S. guaranitica by having a wider apical emargination. Humeral angle very weak, rounded and slightly obtuse in frontal view. Pronotal carina slightly angulate, almost straight below the humeral angle. Parapsidal line very slightly marked. Parategula thumb-shaped. Scutellar-axillar complex as in S. flavotestacea , but with the mesoposterior projection of the lateral axillary panel a little broader. Metanotum almost evenly declivitous in lateral view, with a complete but low toothed ridge. Propodeum as in S. guaranitica , but more elongate, with a less abrupt posterior declivity, with a shallower medial depression, with the sublateral carina elevated into a translucent carina and with the apical lamella more sharply produced. T1 conical, low and obtusely convex in side view, with a straight and very weak transverse carina which is briefly interrupted at middle and hardly reaches the level of the spiracle.

Tegumental sculpture. Clypeus opaque, finely reticulate, sub-shagreened and covered with abundant micropunctation which is progressively denser above (especially on its upper half) and with many shallow and not very coarse macropunctures separated by about their own diameters. Whole body sub opaque, covered with moderately dense micropunctation. Head and mesothoracic dorsum a bit less opaque than the remainder. Head, pronotum and mesothorax covered with dense medium size macropunctation which is sparser at sides and on scutellum. Tegula with a large micropuncture-free mesolateral area. Anterior metanotal band confluently double-crenate. Lateral propodeal surface covered with fine and sparse macropunctures which become gradually denser and coarser toward the spiracle and with some shagreened close to the submarginal carina. Sublateral propodeal surface covered with dense macropunctation that become coarser and almost obliquely striatopunctate below. Medial propodeal depression finely and sparsely macropunctate, especially below, where some transverse striolation is evident. T1 with some thin scattered macropunctures on its anterior declivity and with moderately spaced macropunctation on its disc, especially concentrated along its midline. S1 coarsely and densely macropunctate. T2 covered with macropunctation which is thin and sparse at its base but gradually coarser and denser backward as to form a distinct premarginal band of very coarse and dense punctation. S2 with moderately spaced mid sized macropunctation which is coarser medially. Metasomal segments 3–5 covered with dense macropunctation which is sparser on sterna. Metasomal segment 6 moderately covered with thin macropunctation.

Pilosity. Body covered with a very short and thin ashy fulvous decumbent pubescence intermixed with sparse semi erect setae which are longer on propodeum and on T1. Propodeum with a lower medial band of reflective downpressed pilosity. Pubescence on metasoma more plainly appressed.

MALE. Differing from the female in: Color pattern. Clypeus with a submedial curved line than can be fused above with its pair as to form a large horseshoe shaped marking. Inner orbit extending up to the ocular sinus. Interantennal spot present. Mandible usually yellow on its basal depression. F11 light colored. Light markings on legs more sharply defined.

Measurements and proportions. Body length 10.3 mm. Wing length 8.2 mm. Clypeus 0.96 × as wide as high and with its apical margin 1.2 × as wide as the interantennal distance.

Structure and tegumental sculpture. Clypeus oval, narrower, with a deeper apical emargination between noncarinated teeth. F9 cylindrical. F11 short, fingerlike, slightly thick and sharp-pointed. Propodeum shorter, with a more abrupt posterior declivity. Tergal macropunctation coarser and denser, especially on the premarginal band, which is reticular, with many confluent points in several specimens.

Distribution. Andean Piedmont of Argentina; Parana-Paraguay basin of Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, and an isolated records from the Serra de Baturité in Ceará, North Eastern Brazil and from Peru and the Bolivian Yungas. The holotype of Nortonia lugens is the only recorded Peruvian specimen so far. Von Schulthess (1904) circumstantially argued it could come from Callanga. More collectings are needed as to confirm the distribution of this species along the Bolivian and Peruvian Yungas and North Eastern Brazil. The distribution of this species has a noteworthy coincidence with the Seasonally Dry Forest phytogeographic unit defined by Prado (2000).

Biology. Bertoni (1911) records this species visiting flowers of Talinum patens (Portulaccaceae) . It is not uncommon on flowers of Hyptis sp. ( Lamiaceae ) and Borreria sp. ( Rubiaceae ) in Paraguay. One of the males from Cororó and deposited in the AMNH bears abundant mites in the axillary fossae and over the posterior declivity of the propodeum, in a similar way as illustrated by Giordani Soika (1985: 191: fig. 3) for the African Pseudonortonia malelensis (Bequaert) .
