Acrotaphus Townes, 1960 is a moderately large New World genus of spider attacking parasitoid wasps. Previously, it comprised 11 species. The present study aims to review the genus, and includes descriptions of 15 new species: A. amajari sp. n., A. amazonicus sp. n., A. bodoquenaensis sp. n., A. cuzconus sp. n., A. dolichopus sp. n., A. homeofranklini sp. n., A. jackiechani sp. n., A. kourou sp. n., A. micrus sp. n., A. monotaenius sp. n., A. nambilloensis sp. n., A. pseudoamazonicus sp. n., A. pseudomexicanus sp. n., A. venezuelanus sp. n. and A. zampieronae sp. n.. In addition, we present new characters for the study of the genus and describe the male genitalia for the first time. An illustrated key and maps to the species of the genus are provided. Acrotaphus franklini Gauld, 1991 and A. pseudoamazonicus sp. n. were recorded from the nests of Trypoxylon (Trypargilum) lactitarse Saussure, 1867 (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae).
阿克罗塔普斯属（Acrotaphus）由汤斯于1960年建立，是新大陆上一类体型中等偏大的捕食蜘蛛的寄生蜂属。此前，该属包含11个物种。本研究旨在对该属进行综述，包括描述15个新物种：阿马贾里阿克罗塔普斯（A. amajari）新种、亚马逊阿克罗塔普斯（A. amazonicus）新种、博多克埃纳阿克罗塔普斯（A. bodoquenaensis）新种、库斯科阿克罗塔普斯（A. cuzconus）新种、长肢阿克罗塔普斯（A. dolichopus）新种、富兰克林故居阿克罗塔普斯（A. homeofranklini）新种、查尼阿克罗塔普斯（A. jackiechani）新种、库鲁阿克罗塔普斯（A. kourou）新种、微小阿克罗塔普斯（A. micrus）新种、单带阿克罗塔普斯（A. monotaenius）新种、楠比约阿克罗塔普斯（A. nambilloensis）新种、拟亚马逊阿克罗塔普斯（A. pseudoamazonicus）新种、拟墨西哥阿克罗塔普斯（A. pseudomexicanus）新种、委内瑞拉阿克罗塔普斯（A. venezuelanus）新种和赞皮耶罗纳阿克罗塔普斯（A. zampieronae）新种。此外，我们还提出了用于该属研究的新特征，并首次描述了雄性生殖器。提供了该属物种的图解检索表和分布图。富兰克林阿克罗塔普斯（Acrotaphus franklini）（高尔德，1991年）和拟亚马逊阿克罗塔普斯新种是在1867年索绪尔命名的乳足锥尾蜂（Trypoxylon (Trypargilum) lactitarse）（膜翅目：蛛蜂科）的巢穴中记录到的。
