Stizini

The Stizini are a tribe of small to large-sized sand wasps, similar to those in the tribe Bembicini, distinguished primarily by features of wing venation. Members of the genus Stizus are large, and superficially resemble cicada-killer wasps (genus Sphecius, in the related tribe Gorytini), and members of the genus Stizoides are cleptoparasites in the nests of other Crabronids.
