- Larger species (total body length 3.5– 7 mm); disc of clypeus shallowly concave; at least scutum (and sometimes also frons) with more shining interspaces between macropunctures, with less distinct reticulate microsculpture ( Figs 1A, C, D View FIGURE 1 , 3A, C View FIGURE 3 , 4A, B View FIGURE 4 , 10A, D View FIGURE 10 , 13A View FIGURE 13 ); coloration variable..................................................................... 3
3. Occiputal carina strongly lamellate, forming blunt angle in front of ocular sinus ( Fig. 10C View FIGURE 10 ); frons and scutum with coarse sparse punctures and shining interspaces between them ( Fig. 10A, D View FIGURE 10 ); total body length 6–7 mm ....... Q. uzbeka Kostylev, 1935 View in CoL
- Occiputal carina not lamellate or very weakly lamellate, usually not forming angle in front of ocular sinus or this angle indistinct ( Figs 1B View FIGURE 1 , 3B View FIGURE 3 , 4D View FIGURE 4 , 13B View FIGURE 13 ); frons and scutum with less coarse punctures ( Figs 1A, C, D View FIGURE 1 , 3A, C View FIGURE 3 , 4A, B View FIGURE 4 , 13A View FIGURE 13 ), interspaces between punctures on frons sometimes with distinct reticulate microsculpture ( Figs 3C View FIGURE 3 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ); total body length at most 5.5 mm..... 4
4. Female predominately yellow, lower half of frons yellow, scutum completely yellow ( Fig. 1A View FIGURE 1 ); male black with whitish pattern, frons nearly completely whitish ( Fig. 1B–D View FIGURE 1 ), tergum VII reddish brown with pale yellow spot ( Fig. 1E View FIGURE 1 )........................................................................................... Q. chlorotica ( Morawitz, 1888) View in CoL
- At least scutum of female completely or nearly completely black ( Figs 3A View FIGURE 3 , 4A View FIGURE 4 , 13B View FIGURE 13 ), frons usually entirely black ( Figs 3C View FIGURE 3 , 4B View FIGURE 4 , 13A View FIGURE 13 ) or with a central spot in lower half (in Q. mongolica View in CoL ); male tergum VII uniformly brown, reddish to reddish-brown ( Fig. 4C View FIGURE 4 ), or reddish-yellow................................................................................. 5
5. Frons with shining interspaces between macropunctures, with indistinct microsculpture ( Fig. 13A View FIGURE 13 ); male with slenderer harpide ( Fig. 11B View FIGURE 11 )...................................................................... Q. funebris Kostylev, 1935 View in CoL
- Frons with less shining interspaces between macropunctures, with distinct reticulate microsculpture ( Figs 3C View FIGURE 3 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ); male with broader harpide ( Fig. 11C, D View FIGURE 11 )........................................................................... 6
6. Larger species (total body length 4.5–5.5 mm); coloration predominately black with pale yellow pattern, pale yellow color usually outlined by ferruginous, female tergum VI and male tergum VII reddish or reddish-brown ( Figs 3A, B, D View FIGURE 3 , 4A, C, D View FIGURE 4 ); cupula less broad in relation to remaining parts of genitalia ( Fig. 11C View FIGURE 11 )................... Q. mikhaili Fateryga , sp. nov.
- Smaller species (total body length 3.5– 4 mm); coloration black with extensive orange-yellow pattern, female tergum VI and male tergum VII reddish-yellow ( Fig. 13B View FIGURE 13 ); cupula broader in relation to remaining parts of genitalia ( Fig. 11D View FIGURE 11 ).................................................................................... Q. mongolica ( Morawitz, 1889) View in CoL
7. Posterior end of tegula not produced ( Fig. 2A View FIGURE 2 ); frons and scutum completely dull, with strong reticulate microsculpture between macropunctures ( Fig. 2A, C View FIGURE 2 ); coloration of female predominately yellow ( Fig. 2A–D View FIGURE 2 ); male unknown..............................................................................................
