D i a g n o s i s: ♀. Astata rubra nov.sp. is characterized by unmodified hindtrochanter, long forebasitarsus with 15-17 undulating ventral spines and the red metasoma with dark brown pygidial plate. From other species with red metasoma like A. costae and A. lusitanica it differs by black bristles on antennomere I, coxae and trochanters; from A. lusitanica additionally by the longer forebasitarsus. From A. rubriventris it differs by white and black bristles on coxae and trochanters as well as black ventral setae of hindfemur.
