Eumerus pulverulentus Brunetti, 1923: 258 View in CoL .
Type locality: India (Bihar District: Pusa).
Remarks: Brunetti described this species based on both males and females from India. The type specimens are deposited in the Natural History Museum,London.He remarked that this species is quite distinct among its congeners due to the scutellum with a yellow margin, elongated antennae, and the markings on abdominal tergite IV. During our present study, we found that E. vestitus is similar to Eumerus pulverulentus in the yellow margined scutellum, but E. vestitus can be easily distinguished by the shape of sternite IV of the male, the distinct row of short spines on apical ⅓ of hind femora,and the enlarged hind basitarsus.
Distribution: Pakistan (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa:Peshawar), – India (Bihar, Jammu Kashmir, Rajasthan) ( Mitra et al., 2015; Shehzad et al., 2017).
