Subgenus Sakagamilla Moure

Sakagamilla Moure, 1989: 681 .

Type species: Sakagamilla affabra Moure, 1989 View in CoL , by original designation.

Although originally proposed for only that species with yellow maculation along the mesoscutal lateral borders and on the axillae, this group was expanded to include all of those characteristically short-bristled taxa ( Engel, 2022a ). An account of the subgenus, as the tubiba species group, was recently provided by Engel (2022a) , and is therefore not repeated here. A key to the species, excluding S. marialiceae Laroca & Almeida , was provided by Engel (2022a) .
