Larra
Fabricius sensu Klug, 1845:pl. 46 and text (in part). R. Bohart and
Menke (1976:53) commented as follows: Larra Fabricius contained
unrelated species of sphecids as well as a scoliid and a tiphiid. Latreille
(1802b) recognized the conglomerate nature of the genus and restricted
Larra to wasps now placed in the Larrinae. He established the
new genus Stizus for the remaining sphecids of Fabricius' Larra.
Klug and F. Smith both restricted Larra to species assigned by
other authors to Latreille's Stizus. F. Smith (1856:273-274,
337) went so far as to designate a type species for Larra, although
his designation was antedated by that of Latreille, 1810 and others.
Species placed in Larra By Klug and F. Smith are now assigned
to Stizus, Stizoides, and Bembecinus.
