typically possesses a first gastral tergite with abundant pubescence beginning about midlength and continuing to the posterior margin of the segment. A fringe of pubescence is typically present along the dorsal face of the propodeum as well. However, we have seen specimens within nest series where the pubescence patterns do not match perfectly as discussed above and in these cases scape measurements should separate the two species. There was one location where both species occurred sympatrically and in fact were collected on the same day (Prov.
