Mexican species of three pimpline genera, Apechthis Frster (one species), Itoplectis Frster (six species) and Pimpla Fabricius (20 species, including one unidentified taxon), are reviewed. Four species of Pimpla are described as new to science: P. chamela sp. nov., P. oaxacana sp. nov., P. tequila sp. nov. and P. xalapana sp. nov. Pimpla thoracica Morley, 1914 is found to be a junior synonym of P. ellopiae Harrington, 1892 (syn. nov.). Apechthis zapoteca (Cresson) is recorded for the first time from Venezuela, Pimpla dimidiata (Townes) from Mexico, P. caeruleata Cresson, P. croceiventris (Cresson), P. sanguinipes Cresson and P. sumichrasti Cresson from Honduras, P. ichneumoniformis Cresson and P. viridescens Morley from Guatemala and Honduras, and P. punicipes Cresson from Panama. The South American species Pimpla caerulea Brull and the Nearctic species P. pedalis Cresson are excluded from the Mexican fauna. Male of Itoplectis mexicana and female of Pimpla dimidiata are recorded for the first time. Identification keys to the species of Itoplectis and Pimpla occurring in Mexico are provided.
墨西哥的三个针蜂属，Apechthis Frster（一种），Itoplectis Frster（六种）和 Pimpla Fabricius（20 种，包括一个未确定的分类单元），进行了综述。描述了四种新的 Pimpla 物种：P. chamela sp. nov.，P. oaxacana sp. nov.，P. tequila sp. nov. 和 P. xalapana sp. nov.。发现 Pimpla thoracica Morley, 1914 是 P. ellopiae Harrington, 1892 的次异名（syn. nov.）。首次在委内瑞拉记录了 Apechthis zapoteca (Cresson)，在墨西哥记录了 Pimpla dimidiata (Townes)，在洪都拉斯记录了 P. caeruleata Cresson、P. croceiventris (Cresson)、P. sanguinipes Cresson 和 P. sumichrasti Cresson，在危地马拉和洪都拉斯记录了 P. ichneumoniformis Cresson 和 P. viridescens Morley，在巴拿马记录了 P. punicipes Cresson。排除了来自墨西哥动物区系的南美的 Pimpla caerulea Brull 和近北极的 P. pedalis Cresson 两种物种。首次记录了 Itoplectis mexicana 的雄性和 Pimpla dimidiata 的雌性。提供了墨西哥出现的 Itoplectis 和 Pimpla 物种的识别关键。
