. In combination with the hair pattern found on the hind tibia, the pattern of yellow maculations on the metasoma is usually diagnostic (Figs. 10, 11): in a few specimens there are no markings whatsoever, but in the majority, on T2–T5 each terga has a very small yellow dot (at times minute and sometimes with two dots) on the far lateral surface (in fact, so far laterally that they are not visible in dorsal view). The observed variability in maculation pattern progresses from a yellow dot present laterally only on T2 (for lightly-maculated specimens) to yellow dots present on T2 and T3, to yellow dots present on T2, T3 and T5, and finally (for the most heavily-maculated specimens), to yellow dots present on T2–T5 including T4. The dots increase slightly in size with more heavily-maculated individuals; however, as the extent of the maculations increases, the enlargement of the dots occurs medially, creating a more rectangular maculation, progressing to a more broadly transverse set of maculations (these maculations not joining medially and usually absent at the midpoint of the terga), maculation extent finally progressing to T3 possessing a second, sublateral, round, yellow spot similar in size to, but not conjoined with, the far lateral yellow maculation (a second, sublateral yellow spot has not been observed on T2). Unlike many species, in

the scutellum is pillow shaped, lacking a median longitudinal depression or furrow. The pseudopygidial area is also diagnostic in this species: compared to other species, it is relatively long, extending basally rather far onto the disc of T5, and is comprised of comparatively long and coarse hairs (Fig. 12). Finally, the preoccipital margin of the gena is carinate to subcarinate.

). The yellow maculation pattern found on the metasomal terga is more extensive than that of the females, but follows the general pattern described above. However, in at least one specimen examined the lateral yellow maculations were poorly differentiated from the dark orange background integument of the terga, especially on T2–T4 (thus these maculations could be described as either complete or medially interrupted). T6 has vague, dark orange to yellow maculations that are poorly differentiated from the background color of the integument.

For both males and females, the extent and pattern of yellow maculations on the metasoma is extremely variable. We have seen a relatively long series of female specimens and the maculation pattern can vary from none to modest amounts on all the terga except T1, which in all cases lacks yellow maculations (see Diagnosis). The amount of black integumental color on the mesoscutum varies progressively from only a small section along the median anterior margin, to a black stripe extending longitudinally along the side, to a stripe extending longitudinally down the middle, to an additional black stripe between the lateral and central areas of black integument. Similarly, and usually corresponding to the degree of black integument on the mesoscutum, the amount of black integument on the face varies from a small patch surrounding the ocelli to a large coalesced patch surrounding both the ocelli and the antennal bases.
