Digonocryptus sutor (Fabricius, 1804)

Morphological variation. In one specimen (Suriname) the posterior transverse carina of propodeum is faint but distinct and complete. This carina has only been reported as indistinct (Aguiar & Ramos 2011).

Comments. The dorsal pattern of yellow stripes on the metasoma seems also of some diagnostic value between the present species and D. coloratus, with which it is quite similar. In D. sutor the yellow stripes are complete on T1–3 and then widely interrupted on T4–7, contrasting with an incomplete or indistinct stripe on T1 followed by all stripes complete or nearly so on T 2–7 in D. coloratus .
