Some digger wasps and sand wasps (Crabronidae) and thread-waisted wasps (Sphecidae) are rather large, colourful and conspicuous, but most are small and easily overlooked. Despite their interesting biology as parasitoids of other insects hardly any work has been done on these families occurring on the Dutch Caribbean islands. The inventory of Crabronidae and Sphecidae on Bonaire carried out in 2022 and 2023 is the first in its kind and resulted in a strong increase in the number of species known to occur in the Dutch Caribbean.
