| Abstract |
A taxonomic study on the solitary vespid wasps in the genus Eumenes Latreille, in the western part of the Papuan region is presented. Two new species are described: E. batantanensis Nugroho, new species, from Batanta Island and E. truncatus Nugroho, new species, from Sentani and Manokwari. Eumenes conformis Smith, 1864, known only from Ceram is synonymized under E. inconspicuus Smith, 1858, new synonymy; the species is known to occur widely in the Oriental and Papuan regions, from Thailand to Bali, and through Sulawesi and Moluccas to the western part of New Guinea. The male characteristics of E. inconspicuus are described for the first time. |
