The spider wasps are Hymenoptera that provide spiders to their larvae as an only source of food. Approximately, 150 species are known in Colombia. Some regions, however, such as the Caribbean have been poorly sampled. In this work we review the Pompilidae specimens housed in the entomological collection of Universidad del Magdalena. We recorded nine species and subspecies, four of which expand their distribution to Colombian Caribbean, four represent new records for Colombia. and one represents the first geographical record to the country that corresponds to the neotype designation. Most of species that extend their distribution to Colombian Caribbean were only known from central and eastern region from this country, the species that represent new records were only known to countries such Costa Rica and others in the insular region of Caribbean. The knowledge in Colombia about spider-wasps is scarce because the family has been poorly studied. Therefore, the contributions to information regarding lists and distribution of species can be useful to know the family in the country.
