Abstract

A new species of Megachile subgenus Chelostomoides Robertson is described from xeric central-western Argentina. The male of the new species agrees with those of the M. exilis species group of North America, but not the female, which has a highly modified clypeus and elongate mandibles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
