Kadlecová [OLBL/PCMS].</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>This species differs from other Palaearctic species of the genus by having forewings with two submarginal cells (versus three cells in other species, except E. bischoffi Mavromoustakis, 1954) (Fig. 2A, B). The new species are clearly distinguished from E. bischoffi by lack of long black dense hair on the whole body, position of labral teeth closer to apical margin, the reddish female mesosoma (black in E. bischoffi) and many other characters.</p> <p>Description.</p> <p>Male (Figs 2, 3). Total body length 6.0 mm; forewing length (without tegula) 3.5 mm. Structure and sculpture. Head (Fig. 3B) transverse, ca 1.35 times as wide as long. Labrum (Fig. 3C) 1.6 times as wide as long; rounded basally and laterally, with two small sub-apical teeth, medially (between teeth) slightly depressed, apical margin straight; integument shiny, coarsely and densely punctate (15-30 μm / confluent-1). Frons with developed frontal keel. Upper part of frons and vertex shiny, smooth between punctures (15-25 μm / confluent-1.5). Antennae short, F1 ca 1.0 times as long as wide, F2 and F3 0.8 times as long as wide. Mesoscutum shiny and smooth between coarse punctures (20-40 μm / confluent-1). Axilla with short acute tooth not attaining posterior margin of mesoscutellum. Mesoscutellum with medial longitudinal impression; posterior margin scarcely extending over propodeum. Metanotum medially with small prominence, extending over propodeum (slightly visible under tomentum). Mesepisternum with confluent punctures (15-20 μm). Propodeal triangle finely rugulose; rest vertical part of propodeum smooth. Metasomal tergal discs shiny and smooth between tiny punctures (ca 15 μm / 0.5-1.5); marginal zones semi-transparent, smooth, with tiny and dense punctures. Pygidial plate (T7) shiny, 1.2 times as long as basal width, narrowed toward apex, with shallow punctures; apical margin slightly curved. Sterna shiny, with dense punctures. Coloration: Head black, but mandibles yellow-red with dark apex; labrum and clypeus (apically) yellow; antennae reddish with brown scape and pedicel. Mesosoma mostly black; pronotal lobe and axilla reddish; mesoscutellum with two reddish spots on the sides of medial impression; legs reddish, spurs pale (ivory); wings hyaline, stigma light brown, veins brown. Tergal discs dark brown, reddish brown laterally and along marginal zone; marginal zones yellowish. Pygidial plate (T7) reddish (Fig. 3D). Visible sterna brownish with yellow marginal zones. Pubescence: Labrum with white plumose pubescence, on apical margin with thin simple setae. Face and genae with dense (obscuring integument) whitish tomentum (sparser on frons). Vertex with relatively sparse short pubescence. Pronotum and metanotum with white tomentum obscuring integument. Mesoscutum and mesoscutellum with creamy tomentum denser and lighter (whitish) peripherally. Lateral and ventral parts of mesosoma entirely covered with white tomentum. Legs with dense white pubescence. Tergal marginal zones with uninterrupted white tomentum bands; T1 with wide basal band connected with apical (marginal) band laterally, T2 only with lateral white tomentum spots connected with apical (marginal) band; tergal discs with light brownish adpressed pubescence not obscuring integument. Visible sterna with white tomentum (Fig. 3A).</p> <p>Female (Fig. 4). Total body length 6 mm; forewing length (without tegula) 3.5-4.0 mm. Structure and sculpture similar to those of the male. F1 1.6-1.8 times as long as wide, F2 and F3 ca 1.2 times as long as wide. Mesoscutum shiny and smooth between coarse punctures (20-30 μm / confluent-0.5). T6 mostly hidden under T5, pygidial plate truncate on apex. S5 wide, straight as seen in lateral view. Processes on sides of S6 normal, with short projections. Coloration of head and mesosoma similar to those of the male, but antennae entirely reddish-brown and mesoscutellum entirely reddish. Mesosoma reddish; pygidial plate yellow with brownish edging. Pubescence similar to that of the male, T5 with white tomentum, pseudopygidial area short with silver-like pubescence.</p> <p>Etymology.</p> <p>The new species is named in honor of Prof. Arkady Lelej (Vladivostok, Russia), an outstanding hymenopterist and our friend.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>Mongolia (Dornogovi, Sukhbaatar, Umnugovi).</p> <p>Remarks.</p> <p>It is noteworthy that two other cleptoparasitic genera, Nomada Scopoli, 1770 (Apidae) and Sphecodes (Halictidae), also have a small group of species with two submarginal cells (Proshchalykin and Lelej 2010; Astafurova et al. 2020).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/FE51EC9C778259CD9061EB68589E6125	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Paratypes: 11 ♀, with the same labels (OLBL/PCMS, 2 ♀ - ZISP); 3 ♀, Bulgan, 170 km W of Ulaanbaatar, dunes, 1070 m, 16.VIII.2007, MK (OLBL/PCMS); 4 ♀, 160 km W Ulanbaatar, dunes, 1220 m, 16.VIII.2007, JH (OLBL/PCMS).</p> <p>Diagnosis.</p> <p>This species is clearly distinguished from other Palaearctic species by red metasoma with spectacular bright copper-reddish (Fig. 5A, B) or gold-yellowish (Fig. 5C) tomentum entirely covering terga and well-developed on head and mesosoma. Unlike other Palaearctic species, the new species does not possess contrast coloration of pubescence, forming light spots or bands. The species is structurally closest to E. alpinus and E. cruciger, since it also belongs to E. cruciger species group, and especially resembles E. alpinus in having long setae on vertex and labrum with almost straight apical margin (slightly curved).</p> <p>Description.</p> <p>Female. Total body length 6.5-8.0 mm; forewing length (without tegula) 5.5-7.0 mm. Structure and sculpture: Head (Fig. 6A) transverse, ca 1.3 times as wide as long. Labrum (Fig. 6B) 1.6 times as wide as long, rounded basally and laterally, apical margin slightly curved with small distinct medial tooth; sub-apically with two well-visible teeth, medially (between teeth) slightly depressed; integument shiny, coarsely and densely punctate (15-30 μm / confluent-1). Clypeus dull, densely and finely punctate (10-15 μm / confluent-0.5), widely shiny and impunctate along apical margin. Frons with developed frontal keel. Upper half of frons densely punctate (15-25 μm / confluent-0.5), shiny and smooth between punctures. Flagellomeres ca 1.5 times as long as wide. Mesoscutum and mesoscutellum coarsely and densely areolate-punctate (25-40 μm /confluent-0.5). Axilla pointed apically, but without distinct tooth (Fig. 6C). Mesoscutellum with medial longitudinal impression; posterior margin scarcely extending over propodeum. Mesepisternum areolate-punctate. Propodeal triangle shagreened; rest vertical part of propodeum shiny and smoother (finely tessellate to smooth). Metasomal terga densely and finely punctate (10-15 μm / 1-2), interspaces smooth and dull; marginal zones transparent under tomentum. Pseudopygidial area (Fig. 6E) short, triangular. Pygidial plate trapezoidal, truncate on apex. Processes on sides of S6 normal, with short projections. Sterna densely punctured like terga (Fig. 6F). S5 wide, straight as seen in lateral view (Fig. 6D). Coloration: Head mostly black, but mandibles yellow-red with dark apex; labrum entirely yellow-red; clypeus entirely yellow-red or black on upper half; antennae yellow-red on basal segments and ventrally. Mesosoma mostly black; mesepisternum entirely black or partially red (on upper half and ventrally and laterally; pronotal lobe, axilla, mesoscutellum, metanotum (medially) and legs (including spurs) yellow-red; wings with brownish darkening, stigma and veins brown. Metasoma yellow-reddish. Pygidial plate red with brownish edging. Pubescence: Body without contrast coloration of pubescence, only with tomentum of approximately the same color: bright copper-reddish (Fig. 5A, B) or gold-yellowish (Fig. 5C). Labrum with thin yellow setae denser and longer around sub-apical teeth. Face and genae with dense tomentum obscuring integument (sparser on upper half of frons). Upper half of frons with long thin setae. Vertex with short thick setae, dense but not obscuring integument. Mesoscutum entirely covered with tomentum (tomentum can be strongly shabby). Lateral and ventral parts of mesosoma, metanotum entirely covered with dense tomentum. Legs with sparse yellow setae. Metasomal terga entirely covered with dense tomentum obscuring integument. Pseudopygidial area with silver-like pubescence. Sterna with golden short and relatively dense setae (not entirely obscuring integument, but denser on S4 and S5).</p> <p>Male. Unknown.</p> <p>Etymology.</p> <p>The specific epithet is named after the country of origin.</p> <p>Distribution.</p> <p>Mongolia (Bulgan, Zavkhan).</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/662C270AA75A576CA497835539C5F44C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
