are relatively variable. The sculpture of the head is predominantly rugulose, though the regularity, and to a lesser degree thickness, varies somewhat. In some specimens the sculpture forms somewhat regular and more elongate channels that tend to arch around the orbit of the eye. The degree of obliteration of sculpture on the head and mesonotum is also variable, though there is an overall trend to have some obliteration present, particularly surrounding the lateral ocelli. The intensity and color of the metallic sheen varies: most species exhibit a dark blue sheen, with a few species having a brighter, more green to teal tint. The pilosity surrounding the pronotal verricule in

-group species. Th ree specimens are included here tentatively (OSUC 212555, 211458, 211510); they differ slightly in tint, size and sculpture of the mesoscutum and in future revisions should be compared with newly collected material.
