(2002), so here are indicated only diagnostic characters for the identification of both sexes of this species. Diagnosis. Both sexes with integument dark brown on head and mesosoma. Metasoma with bluish metallic reflections. Mesoscutum and scutellum with whitish or light yellow hairs. The rest of the body with dark brown to black pilosity. Female: fore elaiospathe located in the distal half of forebasitarsus, with the secondary comb formed by three giant spatulate hairs (Fig. 29). Hairs of hind elaiospathe not overlapping (Fig. 30). Middle and hind claws simple, fore claws with small preapical tooth. The specimens with southernmost distribution records have slightly yellow pubescence on mesoscutum and scutellum. This species is similar to Centris orellanai , differing (both sexes) in the coloration of the pubescence on mesoscutum and scutellum (relatively whitish in C . cineraria (Figs. 1−4); light brown to orange in C . orellanai (Figs. 17−20)) and by the metallic reflections on metasoma (bluish in C . cineraria (Figs. 2 and 4); relatively greenish in C . orellanai (Figs. 18 and 20)). Both females also differ in the hair number of the secondary comb of the fore elaiospathe (three in C . cineraria four in C . orellanai ), and in the preapical tooth of the claws of middlegs (absent in C . cineraria present in C . orellanai ). Type material. Centris cineraria : Holotype female (BMNH, examined). Centris chilensis neoqueenensis : Syntypes male and female (Museum für Naturkunde, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany (ZMB), not examined). Type locality. Centris cineraria : Chile. Centris chilensis neoqueenensis : Argentina: Neuquén. Taxonomic decision for synonymy. Roig-Alsina (2000). Floral records. See table 1. Distribution. This species ranges in Chile from IV Coquimbo Region as far south as XII Magallanes y la Antártica chilena Region in Chilean Patagonia, and in Argentina from Neuquén Province to Santa Cruz Province.
