Celonites andreasmuelleri, a new species of pollen wasp from Israel and Jordan is described. It belongs to the Celonites abbreviatus-complex as indicated by a pollen-collecting apparatus consisting of knobbed setae on clypeus and frons and a corresponding pollen comb on the forelegs. Females of C. andreasmuelleri were recorded at nototribic flowers of Ballota sp. (Lamiaceae)
