Etymology. The epithet is inspired by the Latin word for changeable, in reference to the variations in body color, sculpture of mesoscutal midlobe, and the length of median propodeal projection, and is intended to be treated as an adjective.

This species is well supported by many characters, although the color of mesosoma and metasoma, sculpture of mesoscutal midlobe, and the length of median propodeal projection are variable. The color of mesosoma and metasoma varies from orange to dark brown. The sculpture of the mesoscutal midlobe varies from largely smooth with two rows of discrete coarse punctures to coarsely carinate with two rows of contiguous coarse punctures. The length of the median propodeal projection varies from short to long. These variations are gradual among specimens. Therefore, we consider them as intraspecific rather than interspecific differences. Figures 47-52.
