: the absence of sculpture on the pronotal nucha is constant and obvious (Fig. 87, pn); the mesonotum is relatively flat; the fore wing does not or just reaches T6; and sculpture medial to the lateral ocelli is usually obliterated or smoothed. Several additional characters link a majority of specimens: in females and larger males the fore wing has a golden infuscation more or less throughout; the eye is slightly quadrate in lateral view; the medial sculpture of T3 is variable, though it is usually at least slightly developed; and the base of the mandible is smooth in most individuals (contrasting with the fine reticulate sculpture seen in most Afrotropical ernstii-group species). The larger morphotype (Figs 85-90), predominantly from Nigeria and the Ivory Coast, has the scape with the basal 1/4 yellow, the remainder light brown (females and males). It also has a somewhat more wedge-shaped head, though this appears to vary with size. Smaller individuals, predominantly from Yemen and the UAE, have a slightly more rounded head, are lighter colored in general, and have slightly less infuscation in the wings. Large and small morphs are linked through moderately sized individuals known from Nigeria, Cameroon, and Burkina Faso. Specimens from Kenya and Sudan (OSUC 234665, 234666, and 244077) are moderately sized and differ primarily in the color of the scape and femora, which are yellow with at most only extremely slight infuscation. We anticipate that
