As discussed in Part 1, the two are to a large extent allopatric, but with some significant occurrences of each within the range of the other. Males are morphometrically distinct on the basis of relative head width, which correlates with the other characters used in the key above, but in southeastern

Members of the group can be identified by the characters given in the key. They can be recognised with the naked eye by the large size, the metallic blue or greenish-blue body colour, the conspicuous pair of prescutal dorsocentral pale stripes, and the pale lateral spots of abdominal T3 not extending on to the dorsum. The rather similar
