Description:
|
Antennae: navy-blue black. Head, thorax and legs: Navy blue-black. Wings: Variable: translucent amber-orange. They capture, sting, and paralyze a spider (usually a female), then they either drag the spider back into her own burrow or transport their prey to a specially prepared nest where a single egg is laid on the spider’s body, and the entrance is covered. The wasp larva, upon hatching, feed on the still-living spider!
