PARTITA GROUP 



HaMess apical margin of clypeus rather narrow; mesopleuron 

 without an oblique carina at the front end of its transverse groove; 

 propodeum without erect long hairs, with only pubescence; brush on 

 inner side of hind tibia very narrow subapically but usually not in- 

 terrupted there; subgenital plate of male broadly spatulate or nar- 

 rowly tectate with a median longitudinal raised area which tapers 

 from a base of appreciable width to a narrow apex which reaches or 

 surpasses the midpoint of the plate. 



Fore and middle tibial spurs of male white or whitish, often infus- 

 cate basally; hind tibial spurs of male blackish. 



This species group includes the Nearctic partita, grisea, pallida, 

 Seminole, and mintaka.
