The female specimens examined here showed considerable variability for this character, thus, it is considered unreliable for distinguishing these species. Additionally, the female pygidium of these species is very similar, and noticeable variation can be observed. These observations show that the characters given by Barr do not indicate a clear discontinuity between both species, but instead, specimens of
