because of their extremely small head are keyed separately. There exists some variation in the number of atrial spicules, width of the salivary lips, degree of expression of elevation of caudal annulets, and perhaps in body size. However, such features are difficult to quantify and therefore of little diagnostic value. Features shared by these three taxa include slender body form with thickest part of body being the midsection and with the body gradually, evenly narrowing at both ends. Furthermore, they display no middorsal intersegmental tubercles lacking vestiture. There is also a tendency for the caudal annulets to maintain their prominence with respect to the cephalic ones toward the posterior end of the body, contrary to many of the other osmiine taxa.

Head moderately small in relation to body size (fig. 12); oriented in normal, hypognathous position relative to thorax. Labrum faintly pigmented except on some specimens transverse labral sclerite somewhat darker but unevenly so; maxillary sclerites faintly pigmented; salivary lips weakly to deeply pigmented; antennal papilla and maxillary and labial palpi all uniformly moderately pigmented to almost unpigmented.

Antennal papilla distinctly but not strongly pigmented, moderately large and elongate, longer than twice basal diameter, bearing approximately three sensilla apically. Labral sclerite unevenly pigmented.

(fig. 12): Body vestiture without spicules, consisting only of slender, pale, moderately elongate setae, tapering to fine points, arising from small but distinct alveoli; these setae inconspicuous; setae moderately abundant on elevated dorsal surfaces of thorax and widely scattered on anterior ventral surface of thorax; some setae present on dorsal surfaces of caudal annulets of abdominal segment 8, 9, and 10, on ventral surface of abdominal segments 8, 9, and 10; those below anus short and inconspicuous; dorsal surface elsewhere with scattered short inconspicuous setae; lateral lobe of abdominal segment 8 (i.e., area below level of spiracle) with approximately 8 setae. Body form of postdefecating larva moderate in lateral outline between robust and slender (fig. 12); body segments in lateral view gradually increasing in diameter with abdominal segments 3 to 5 having greatest diameters; caudal annulets of most body segments projecting farther than cephalic annulets and surprisingly uniform in appearance; middorsal intersegmental tubercles totally absent. Body form of predefecating larva unknown. Spiracles with pigmented peritreme, subequal in diameter; atrium globular with width somewhat greater than depth, projecting above body wall, with rim; diameter of atrial opening about 3 times radial width of peritreme; atrial inner surface smooth or nearly so; primary tracheal opening with collar; subatrium long, with about 1418 chambers; chambers increasing slightly in size from body surface inward.
