With its depressed propodeum, strongly curved propodeal spines, and nearly complete lack of standing setae, this species is distinctive in the salvini clade, not to mention the genus as a whole. Collected from only a couple of geographically disparate collections (southern Texas and Nicaragua ; Fig. 120G ), this species apparently has a large range, but we still know little about its biology. It is sister to the goniops group (Prebus, in prep.).
