Key to the species of Neocorynura View in CoL from Guatemala (Females)
The following key includes only the described species of Neocorynura View in CoL known to occur in Guatemala. It is almost certain that there are additional species for this country (e.g. those species known to occur both in Costa Rica and Mexico) but without a comprehensive survey or study on the diversity of bees in the country it is hard to predict how many more species (described or undescribed) really inhabit the country. The presented key is only for females, in part owing to the fact that most species are known only by the female holotype.
1. Forewings with costal margin infuscate; base or propodeum black.............................................. 2
- Forewings hyaline; base of propodeum metallic green or purple................................................ 4
2(1). Mesoscutum with punctures broadly separated (> 1 PD) medially; body almost completely black....................................................................................... Neocorynura centroamericana Smith-Pardo View in CoL
- Mesoscutum densely punctate (<1 PD); body with some metallic regions (mesoscutum or metanotum or base of propodeum or basal areas of tergites).................................................................................. 3
3(2). Mesoscutum with coarse punctuation; metanotum dark metallic green; T1 coarsely punctate on basal half (>1PD).................................................................................. Neocorynura cribrita Smith-Pardo View in CoL
