Description
Male: Unknown Comments: This species is morphologically similar to X. maculatus Penteado-Dias, Shimabukuro & van Achterberg from the states of Sao Paulo and Minas Gerais, Brazil (Penteado-Dias et al. 2002). Unfortunately, it was not possible to study the type material of species from Brazil, neither by loan of specimens nor photographs. The specimens from Argentina differ from those of X. maculatus by the complete absence of black markings on the median lobe of the mesoscutum and on the metasomal tergites. The original description of X. maculatus is fairly short and consists of the description of the colour pattern and some details of the sculpture of the propodeum and metasomal terga, which do not allow further comparisons. The figures in Penteado-Dias et al. (2002) show some variation in the colour pattern between two paratypes, but they do not match the pattern described here for X. sayjuhu. Etymology: This new species is named with the guaraní words say’ju (yellow) and hû (black), in reference to the colour pattern of this species. Argentina Parque Nacional Iguazu
