Remarks.
We identified this species using the only key to species of this genus (
Rohdendorf 1975
). It mentions (
Rohdendorf 1975: 208
) a strong sexual dimorphism, which is also present in the species from Kalamaili. The genus
Sphecapatoclea
Villeneuve
is highly in need of taxonomic revision (
Szpila
et al
. 2019
).
