  ABSTRACT: Through the physical review of the Hymenoptera collection of the National Museum of Costa Rica and 53 articles associated with the description of species, we found a total of 4218 paratype specimens, representing 17 families, 41 subfamilies, 47 tribes and 143 genera. Some of them belonging to the genus Heterospilus were damaged during a return of material by mail, and others have genetic sequencing available for research. The possibility that many other paratypes are found in other collections is not ruled out, since there is a large amount of material borrowed that was never returned.
