These wasps are small in size with an elongate body and slender appendages; legs are modified for running. Sexual dimorphism is not marked; antennae have 12 segments in females and 13 segments in males; females have six visible metasomal segments and males usually have only three visible segments. In females metasomal punctures are usually fine, almost impunctate with very sparse delicate punctures (surface glossy) but the metasomal punctures of males are usually coarser.[citation needed]
This is a cosmopolitan genus with about 50 species worldwide (Nearctic 1, Neotropical 2, Palearctic 6, Ethiopian 10, Oriental 27, and Australian 4).[2]
Latreille (1809) erected the genus Dolichurus (Hymenoptera: Ampulicidae) based on the type species Pompilus corniculus Spinola, 1808.[citation needed]
