Remarks

This species was described from a female and two males, of which one female and one male were found. The female syntype is a Doliopria Kieffer, 1910 and the male syntype is a Trichopria . The female syntype has only eleven antennal segments, not twelve as Ashmead described it, however it is very small and Ashmead most probably miscounted, otherwise it agrees with the description and bears Ashmead’s type label, so is considered to be syntypic here. The male is designated as lectotype in order to maintain the current generic combination. The lectotype is mounted on a card point and is missing the apex of the right hind tarsus.
