The genus Polistomorpha (Hymenoptera: Leucospidae) is exclusive to the Neotropical region, comprising seven species. Polistomorpha fasciata has previously been recorded in the Brazilian states of Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, and São Paulo. This study presents the first record of P. fasciata from Northeast Brazil, parasitizing Euglossa cordata within a Restinga ecosystem. Additionally, it provides an extended diagnosis and illustrations of P. fasciata, E. cordata, and its nest.
