Euryglossa aurescens obscura n. subsp. 
Female. Length about 7-5 mm., with mesothorax, seutellum, and axillae 
red, abdomen dark green. The postscutellnm is black and densely punctured. 
It differs from typical E. aurescens Ckll. in the darker (not at all orange) red of 
mesothorax* and seutellum ; the more strongly and closely punctured clypeus, 
mesothorax, and seutellum ; and the dusky wings, with green and rosy iridescence, 
and black stigma. The flagellum is entirely dark, not red beneath as in typical 
E. aurescens. The subspecies is modified in the direction of E. ephi'p'piata Smith.
