Abstract:
The Xiphydria palaeanarctica group is defined to include the following three black northeast Asian Xiphydria woodwasp species with white-marked abdomen, and the females with white-marked antennae: X. ogasawarai Matsumura, 1927, X. palaeanarctica Semenov-Tian-Shanskij, 1921, and X. nagasei Shinohara, sp. nov. Based on the examination of the type material, the synonymy of X. jezoensis Matsumura, 1927, with X. palaeanarctica is confirmed and X. alnivora Matsumura, 1927, is synonymized with X. ogasawarai. Xiphydria nagasei is described from Japan (Honshu). Collection records are given for all 203 specimens examined.
