Hylaeus biscutellus f

Peru, San Martin, San Roque de Cumbaza

 

Single tubercle on labrum; normally paired tubercles in Hylaeopsis

 

holotype: science.mnhn.fr/institution/mnhn/collection/ey/item/ey1837

 

This Peru specimen is darker in colour than the holotype, especially anterior side pronotum (only faint yellow spots) and wings. Structural characteristics all in accordance with description by Vachal (1909). Haven't checked Moure's redescription yet.
