Material examined.

AFRICA. Republic of South Africa: female, Merweville, Laingsburg Distr., leg. H. Zinn (SAMC) (OSp05).

Remarks.

The specimen is not too different from the other South African species O. heikewernerae sp. n., yet cannot be assigned to this species because of a few rather subtle differences, for example, the colour of the head and mesosoma (light green on head and reddish parts on mesosoma, both not present in O. heikewernerae ), and the head shape (round in this specimen, usually oval in O. heikewernerae ).
