Name
Agathacrista cancellata (Enderlein) comb. n. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Agathis cancellata Enderlein, 1920
Diagnosis
This species has the northern-most distribution and appears to be restricted to Taiwan where it is the only species present. Members come in two color morphs; one with the mesosoma bicolored and the other with the mesosoma entirely melanic. Agathacrista cancellata differs from all other members of the genus by the relatively smooth surface of metasomal median tergite 1 (Fig. 1a in the identification key above).
