from the Sierra Madre Occidental has fully black pilose legs. This contrasts with the population surrounding Mexico City, from which the type was collected, which have a streak of yellow pile at the base of the fore and mid femora. Finally, pile color on the proepimeron is variable inside multiple species with observed character states being fully yellow, fully black or a mix of the two. We suspect that additional material will likely show proepimeron pile color to be variable in all species.
