Hyposoter maculatus
Description
Hyposoter maculatus (Hedwig, 1938)
Anilasta maculata Hedwig, 1938: lectotype ♀ in SDEI, designated by Oehlke (1963), examined by Horstmann.
We have seen a specimen from Germany in Horstmann’s collection, which he had marked as identical to the lectotype. The species is distinctive, with a broad dark central streak along the metasoma, which is otherwise orange from the third tergite on. It is most similar to Hyposoter prolixa but, apart from the colour differences, it has a very different sculpture on the propodeum, as set out in the key.
Nothing is known of the biology. The species is recorded from Poland and Germany.
