Podalonia is a genus of parasitoidal wasps in the family Sphecidae.[1]
The genus is present worldwide with the exception of South America.[2] These wasps are similar to the sand wasps (Ammophila), but they have a much shorter petiole and the abdomen is slightly stronger. The thorax bears a small white patch.
The females lay their nests in the sand. They normally incubate in large, hairless caterpillars of moths (Noctuidae).
