can be distinguished in the male by the combination of the lateral white patches of the sixth metasomal tergum greatly reduced, especially in comparison to the patches on the fourth and fifth terga, and the second tergum with the lateral white patch L-shaped (as on the first tergum) or at least with a smaller anterior patch (Fig. 14); while the female can be recognized by the mesoscutum with plsa (anterior posterolateral mesoscutal) present anterior to and along the border with the tegula, extending posteriorly and meeting, or less frequently almost meeting, pls (posterolateral mesoscutal); the second metasomal tergum with the lateral white patch L-shaped (as on the first tergum) or at least with a smaller anterior patch (Figs 12, 14); and the apical depression of the fifth tergum bare medially, rarely with a few punctures with short setae. In both sexes the mesoscutum has coarse punctures throughout; the mesoscutellum is coarsely punctate, with punctures dense and nearly contiguous; the apicolateral corners of the mesoscutellum are prominently and sharply pointed, for-ming an angle of less than 40° (Figs 14, 15); and all of the white, anterior mesoscutal patches are well developed.
