Two species of Eumerus tricolor group, namely Eumerus kopetdagicus sp. n. from the Kopet Dag Mountains in Turkmenistan and Eumerus ryzhik sp. n. from Southeastern Uzbekistan, are described. The first species is most similar to E. atricolorius Gilasian et van Steenis, 2020 (females of both species are unknown) but differs from latter by mainly black dorsal surface of the abdomen as well as by yellow basal 1/3 of tibiae. The second new species is similar to E. binominatus Hervé-Bazin, 1923, but differs by entirely pale pile on face, frons and vertex as well as orange basoflagellomere and characters of male genitalia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
