Remarks.
2r-rs
2
v is almost straight and the dark streak of Rs
2
v is also almost straight, but the connection is strongly arced (
Fig. 1
). It appears similar to those of
Perissosega
and other related genera. However, as indicated by
Kimsey (1995)
, other important characters do not match the diagnosis of
Perissosega
(
Krombein, 1983
;
Kimsey & Bohart 1991
). The absence of a smooth strip on vertex (
Fig. 3
), the well-developed and not-excavated vertex, the presence of a complete omaulus and posterior oblique sulcus (
Fig. 2
), and also the presence of a dorsal carina on metacoxa (
Fig. 4
) are common with
Isegama
among the genera known in the Indo-China region. However, the presence of postero-medial pit on pronotum and the developed posterior propodeal tooth places this species in the genus
Calosega
.
The general habitus, and the smaller and sparsely located punctures of the body are similar to
Calosega kamiteta
Terayama, 1999
; however,
C. flavipes
is distinguished from
C. kamiteta
by the wider flagellum, F2 2.0 × wider than long (F2 1.5 × wider than long) and the unique condition of Rs
2
v (Rs
2
v is normal in
C. kamiteta
, the 2r-rs
2
v and dark streak of Rs
2
v is weakly curving, the connection does not from a strong arc).
