This species has been taken only in California. Though super- ficially similar to A. arcuata or A. agenioides, according to whether the abdomen is red or black, respectively, it is distinct from both in several minor characters and has a different range. Subgenus Ageniella Banks Ageniella Banks, 1912, Journ. New York Ent. Soc, vol. 19, p. 222. Type: Pompilus (Agenia) acceptus Cresson; original designation. Hairless apical margin of clypeus usually polished and nearly always set off from the rest of the clypeus by a groove; mesopleuron with or without an oblique carina at the front end of its transverse groove; propodeum usually without any erect hairs, only with pubes- cence; brush on inner side of hind tibia with or without a subapical interruption; upper side of hind tibia without teeth; sixth sternite of male with a median apical, weakly raised, rounded ridge, on each side of which the sternite is impressed; subgenital plate of male usually tectate. Fore and middle tibial spurs whitish or blackish; hind tibial spurs blackish, or if the insect's body is rufous the tibial spurs may all be ferruginous. This subgenus is well developed in the southern half of North America and in the West Indies. A few species reach southern Canada. Several are known from Panamd, but only one (the Chilean argenteosignatus) from farther south. The known species may be 347756—57 13.
