Abstract

Abstract. A specimen belonging to the genus Polistes (Vespidae: Polistinae) is described from the Chibanian (Middle Pleistocene) Shiobara Group, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. The morphology of the forewing and first gastral tergum indicated a more accurate assignment of Polistes sp. This specimen is the first fossil of a paper wasp to be identified in Japan.
