Trypoxylon scutatum is a predatory wasp in the family Crabronidae.

[3] Trypoxylon scutatum can reach a length of about 10 millimetres (0.39 in), with a head reaching a width of about 15 millimetres (0.59 in).

The hull that borders the frontal shield passes between the posterior ocelli and the anterior ocellum.

It shows a strongly obtuse ventral angle, and a small enclosed space.

The first gastral segment is rather short, especially in males.
