Bees of the Hemihalictus series of Lasioglossum Curtis (Hymenoptera, Halictidae) in South Korea Author Murao, Ryuki text Zootaxa 2017 4268 4 451 488 journal article 33026 10.11646/zootaxa.4268.4.1 e9f2bc10-d1ef-4e84-86ca-c6243b97ce80 1175-5326 580871 BFD371ED-AFDE-49E5-9908-797402B08670 Lasioglossum ( Dialictus ) miyabei Murao, Ebmer & Tadauchi, 2006 Figs 1 C, 2D Lasioglossum ( Evylaeus ) miyabei Murao, Ebmer & Tadauchi 2006: 42 , Figs 7, 8A–B, 9, 12A ( ) [ Holotype : ELKU , , type locality = Botanical Garden , Sapporo , Hokkaido , Japan , examined]; Ebmer 2006: 564.

Lasioglossum ( Dialictus ) miyabei : Murao et al . 2015a : 40 , 44–45 (in key), Figs 23D, 28A ( ). Diagnosis. According to Murao et al . (2006, 2015a), this species is separated from other east Asian members of Lasioglossum ( Dialictus ) by a combination of the following character states: head wider than long in both sexes (length/width ratio = 0.91–0.94 in female, = 0.94–0.98 in male); mesepisternum punctate in both sexes; female metasomal terga dimly shiny; male metasomal sterna not modified; gonostylus of male genitalia small and budlike; and penis valve of male genitalia without cleft on top. Distribution. South Korea , Russian Far East, Japan . Flight period in South Korea. Female: April to September. Males have not been recorded from South Korea. In Japan, males are collected from July to October (Murao 2014). Flower records in South Korea . The floral records are reported six species in six families by Murao et al . (2015a) . Comments. This species belongs to the atroglaucum group in the dissenting systematic (Murao et al . 2006; Pesenko 2007a , as a subgenus Glauchalictus ). However, L. miyabei do not share all diagnostic character states redefined by Murao et al . (2015a) . It will need to be correctly determined using phylogenetic analysis in a future study ( Murao et al . 2015a ).
