No full textPatellapis (Patellapis) hakkiesdraadi sp. n. Timmermann (Figs. 14a–g; 15a–h) Diagnosis. The females have the head wider than long, which separate them from females of P. doleritica. Further, the surface of the paraocular area is slightly dull and sculptured in P. hakkiesdraadi, whereas extensively shiny and without sculpturing in P. doleritica. P. hakkiesdraadi can be easily distinguished from P. richtersveldi, P. impunctata and P. cincticauda by having the scutum and metasomal terga T1–T2 finely and densely punctate and the surface of scutum rather dull than shiny. The males of P. hakkiesdraadi are characterised by a small and angulate apical plate and the head wider than long. In P. doleritica the head is about as wide as long and the apical plate is broad and rounded apically. Both sexes of P. montagui and P. pseudomontagui differ from P. hakkiesdraadi in having the marginal zones of T1–T3 conspicuously more densely punctuate than the rest of the terga.

The male of <i>P. renosterveldi</i> differs from <i>P. timpageleri</i> in the scutal surface, which is completely reticulate in <i>P. renosterveldi</i> and at most partly reticulate anteriorly in <i>P. timpageleri</i>.

No full textPatellapis (Chaetalictus) renosterveldi sp. n. Timmermann (Figs. 101a–g; 102a–h) Diagnosis. The female is similar to those of P. minima and P. sakagamii. P. minima differs from P. renosterveldi in having the surface of scutellum completely reticulate (appears to be dull), whereas this part of the body is shiny and hardly reticulate in P. renosterveldi. P. sakagamii can be distinguished from P. renosterveldi by the reddish metasomal terga T2–T4. The male of P. renosterveldi can be distinguished from those of P. spinulosa, P. timpageleri and P. minima by the size and structure of the dorso-lateral projection on the inner side of the gonostylus. This projection is linear and slender, with a few long, strong, curled hairs ventrally, whereas P. spinulosa and P. timpageleri possess a small, hyaline projection with long, fine hairs ventrally. P. minima lacks such hairs on the dorso-lateral projection of gonostylus. The males of P. sakagamii and P. pulchrinitens can be easily distinguished from that of P. renosterveldi by having a polished face. Description Female. Bl = 4,8–5,1mm. General habitus (Fig. 101e). Head. L = 1,4–1,5mm; W = 1,5–1,6mm. Head about as wide as long (Fig. 101a). Integument black except mandibles sometimes partly reddish-brown. Face shiny and with loose, greyish, erect hairs. Mandibles bidentate. Clypeus and supraclypeal area convex in profile. Clypeus moderately strongly and sparsely punctate; surface shiny. Clypeoantennal distance 0,3mm.

Scutellum as illustrated in Fig. 101c. Scutum, scutellum and metanotum with brownish, erect hairs; mesepisternum and propodeum with long, greyish, erect hairs.
