The following species are included in the genus Allepipona: [1]
Anterhynchium is an Afrotropical, Indomalayan, Australian and Palearctic genus of potter wasps. As in many species of wasp, female wasps defend against predation using a modified ovipositor to sting predators. Like some other wasps in the Vespidae family, male wasps can produce a "pseudo-sting" with two sharp spines on either side of their genitals; however, unlike in the females, this "sting" is venomless.
Cyrtolabulus is an African, Indomalayan and Palearctic genus of potter wasps. It contains the following species:
Knemodynerus is a genus of potter wasps distributed through the Palearctic, Afrotropical, Indomalayan and Australasian regions. The species currently classified in the genus are:
Stroudia is an Afrotropical genus of potter wasps.
Omicrabulus is an Afrotropical genus of potter wasps.
Leptomenes is a mainly Afrotropical genus of potter wasps. It was previously a much larger genus, though many species have been transferred to other genera such as Eumenidiopsis, Stroudia, and Tachymenes.
Eumenidiopsis is an afrotropical genus of Afrotropical potter wasps with eight known species, which are set out below:
