and therefore this species is not included in our phylogenetic analyses. We were also unable to examine type material. However, we were able to examine new material from New Mexico. Based upon overall appearance, incomplete hind coxal margins, distribution, and lack of coloration, we were able to place this species within our concept of the Rala Identification Group.
