A new species of Lepidotrigona (Hymenoptera: Apidae) from Thailand with the description of males of L. flavibasis and L. doipaensis and comments on asymmetrical genitalia in bees

Abstract: We describe Lepidotrigona satun Attasopa and Bänziger new species from southern Thailand based upon associated males and females (workers). The new species is a member of the L. ventralis species group, which is otherwise represented in Thailand only by L. flavibasis and L. doipaensis. We also describe the males of the latter two species, associated with nests from close to their type localities in northern Thailand. Lepidotrigona doipaensis Schwarz and L. flavibasis (Cockerell) had previously often be… Show more

“…Lepidotrigona has been divided into three groups based primarily on size (Schwarz, 1939;Rasmussen, 2008Rasmussen, , 2013. This classifi cation was followed by Attasopa et al (2018). The groups are the small L. "ventralis", the midsize L. "terminata" and the large L. "nitidiventris" groups according to the length of body and forewing.…”

“…Species level separation involves a combination of body size, colour of integument on metasomal terga, colour of hairs on the head and mesosoma (Schwarz, 1939;Sakagami, 1975). There are also differences among species and species groups in the male genitalia (Attasopa et al, 2018) although males are not known for all species. As is the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Oxford, United Kingdom (OUMNH).…”
