The holotypes of Lamprocolletes cupreus , Paracolletes nigroclypeatus , P . chalcurus and P . nigroclypeatus hardyi are all females and show no significant morphological variation. The types of P . plumosellus and P . roseoviridis , which are males and are identical to males associated with Lamprocolletes cupreus by morphological similarity and coincident collection data.
