Key to species of
Westwoodia

W. longipes
Gauld
- Fore wing areolet present (
Figs 38–40
,
42–45

2 Face rugose, at least medially (
Figs 1–2
). Body and antenna orange..............................
W. rodmani
,
n. sp.
- Face without rugae except sometimes near clypeus (

), sparsely to densely punctate (
Figs 3–4
,
7– 8
). Body with at least some black coloration; antenna dark brown to black at least over basal half..........3
3 Frons without strongly elevated median flange (

4 Face sparsely punctate, with or without wrinkled sculpture near clypeus (
Figs 5–6
). Second tarsomere of fore leg of female 1.0–1.3X longer than wide, with fleshy pad extending over most of ventral surface (
Fig. 47
