England, Hounslow.

Remarks

This species was described from an unspecified number of females. Although the published type locality is Scotland, Cameron (1910) says he has no definite locality for this species, and the specimen label says Hounslow in England. There is no reason to exclude this specimen from the type series because Kieffer is known to have misinterpreted many of the localities on Cameron’s specimens. The lectotype is mounted on a card, with its head disarticulated, right antenna with a4-10 missing, mesosoma broken, propodeum and metasoma disarticulated from the rest of the mesosoma, left fore wing folded and left hind wing missing.
