| Abstract: | The velvety ant family Mutillidae from the collection of the Institute of Zoology, Baku, Azerbaijan has been found to comprise 16 genera and 48 species, mostly from the Caucasus. Among these, four species are new to the fauna of Azerbaijan: Dasylabris regalis (Fabricius, 1793), D. scutila Skorikov, 1935, D. shelkovnikovi Lelej, 1985, and Trogaspidia catanensis (Rossi, 1794). In addition, one species is new to the fauna of the Caucasus: Dasylabris gobicola Skorikov, 1935, and one more to the fauna of the former USSR: Dentilla sabulicola (Skorikov, 1935). Hitherto unknown Dentilla cretica (Nonveiller, 1971), F, and Dasylabris shelkovnikovi Lelej, M are described. New synonymy of Myrrmlla armeniaca (=calva) Skorikov, 1927 = M. etzchmiadzini (Radoszkowski, 1885), syn.n. is proposed. |
