Remarks
The taxonomic status and placement of A. shakuensis is completely unclear. Originally described in the subgenus Plastandrena ( Popov 1949) , Gusenleitner & Schwarz (2002) commented that the type lacks the rugose areolate propodeal triangle that helps characterise this subgenus, suggesting placement in the subgenus?Poliandrena instead. Osytshnjuk et al. (2005) placed A. shakuensis in the subgenus Campylogaster , noting the squamous hairs on the scutum in the female sex. As the former subgenus Poliandrena has been found to be strongly polyphyletic, and since most taxa placed in Campylogaster probably do not belong there ( Pisanty et al. 2022b), type revision is required to establish the identity of A. shakuensis and its phylogenetic placement.
