Remarks
Perdita (Procockerellia) brachyglossa was described from a single female specimen. Timberlake (1971)[2] reported that the female had four maxillary palpi. Examination of the holotype revealed four maxillary palpi on one side and one palp on the other. In every morphological character except the palpi, the holotype of P. brachyglossa clearly matches P. imbellis. It seems likely that the mouthparts of the holotype of P. brachyglossa are either damaged or aberrant.
Due to a lapsus calami in Timberlake (1980)[1], Perdita albomaculata Timberlake, 1980, Perdita imbellis Timberlake, 1968, and Perdita luculenta Timberlake, 1968 were all referred to as being in subgenus Cockerellula Strand, 1932. They all belong in subgenus Cockerellia.
