          Abstract

          The last instar larva of Tachysphex inconspicuus (Kirby, 1890) is described and illustrated. Minute spines on the anterior dorsal annulets of abdominal segments and different types of setae on prothorax and mesothorax are remarkable features observed in the larva of T. inconspicuus which were not reported in previously descriptions of larvae of the genus. Distribution of spines and sensilla on the epipharynx and distribution of setae on head and body seem also useful to distinguish Tachysphex larvae.

          A larva de último estádio de Tachysphex inconspicuus (Kirby, 1890) é descrita e ilustrada. Pequenos espinhos nos anéis dorsais anteriores dos segmentos abdominais e diferentes tipos de cerdas no protórax e mesotórax são características destacáveis observadas na larva de T. inconspicuus, as quais não foram registradas em descrições anteriores de larvas do gênero. Distribuição de espinhos e sensilas na epifaringe e distribuição de cerdas na cabeça e no corpo também parecem úteis para distingüir larvas de Tachysphex.
