Gnamptodon pumilio  ♀︎, with red abd., 21-seg. ant. = rufescens var. nov.!

Aspilota dentifemur??  ♀︎ - depauperata sp. n.:  a minute example, ca. 1mm. long, with only 15-seg. ant.  It differs in other details from typical dentifemur, e.g. smoother propodeum & tergite 1.  If this is only a starved dentifemur, then these characters are useless to separate spp. of Aspilota;  on the other hand if these are specific characteristics then we must have more than one species with dentate femora.  I will name tis depauperata sp. n. in the meantime.  AWS. 9.1.46.
