Dipogon variegatus is a pompilid spider wasp in the subfamily Pepsinae from the Palearctic.

Like the other two British species of Dipogon this is an all black wasp with bifasciate forewings (two dark brown bands) with a white spot at the top.

The females can be recognised by transverse wrinkles on the first abdominal segment, in males these are less prominent and the subgenital plate at the tip of the abdomen has long ventral hairs.

[4] These wasps inhabit a wide variety of open habitats including gardens, parks, fields, meadows and coastal heaths.

The nest cavity is plugged with sand grains, soil or plant debris which is bound together by spider silk collected by the female using the maxillar bristles which give the genus Dipogon its name.
