Notes. Females of this species can be readily recognized by the unique pair of tubercles or “horns” on the frons, as described in the key. The length and prominence of the two tubercles varies greatly among females in this species, and even varies among specimens which were collected at the same time at the same locality (Hurd 1978; Mawdsley 2017).
