The specimen from Obidos ( MSNG) identified by Ducke as Chrysis leucochiloides actually belongs to Ipsiura nigriventer Bohart, 1985 . According to Lucena et al. (2016: 52), I. nigriventer is considered quite morphologically uniform, with conspicuous variation observed only in body length and coloration. However, the specimen from Obidos ( MSNG) shows a longer second and third flagellomere ( Fig. 14A View FIGURE 14 ) compared to the specimen illustrated by Lucena et al. (2016: 53), F2 l/w = 1.7 vs subsquare, and it has smaller black spots on the second sternum ( Fig. 14B View FIGURE 14 ). Curiously, all identification labels by Ducke misspell the name leucochiloides instead of the published name leucocheiloides .
