and therefore this species is not included in our phylogenetic analyses. We were also unable to examine type material. However, we were able to examine new material from Arizona and Mexico. Based upon overall similarity, incomplete hind coxal margins, distribution, and lack of coloration, this species fits within our concept of the Rala Identification Group.
