The lighter specimens have the whole body more or less concolorous clear yellow to light yellowish brown. The darker specimens are more bicolored with head and gaster brown with a yellow component and have a lighter yellowish brown mesosoma.

cannot be allocated to a certain species complex. It stands alone as an unmistakable combination of a very hirsute body and appendages, very sparse clypeal pubescence, small torulo-clypeal distance, short terminal segment of maxillary palps, short scape and a strong yellow component in mesosomal color. There is much variation in the material suggesting that more than one species could be involved. Bright yellowish specimens with a longer scape, smaller torulo-clypeal distance and more dilute frontal and genal pubescence were observed in more southwestern parts of the range whereas darker specimens with smaller SL/CS

and slightly denser pubescence show a more northwestern distribution. However, samples for which most standard characters have been recorded are too few, only four in the lighter and ten in the darker morph, to reliably run exploratory data analyses and a subjective inspection does also not speak a clear language. The problem has to be re-considered by future investigators after more samples are available.
