Diagnosis. Clistopyga speculata may be distinguished from all other species of the C. diazi species group by the combination of the following characters: mesosoma extensively reddish ( Figs 7 View FIGURE 7 A–B); clypeal suture straight ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ); submetapleural carina absent ( Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 , arrow).Additionally, female has ocular orbits entirely white cream ( Figs 7 View FIGURE 7 A–D); male may be distinguished by the lower part of gena not concave ( Fig. 10A, 10C View FIGURE 10 , arrows).
Description. Female: Body length 6–11 mm (without ovipositor). Fore wing length 5–8 mm.
Head ( Figs 7 View FIGURE 7 A–D). In dorsal view, moderately narrowed behind eyes. Gena shiny with very sparse setiferous punctures, in dorsal view almost straight, 0.32–0.37× as long as eye ( Fig. 7D View FIGURE 7 ), in frontal view straight and moderately constricted below eyes ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ). Frons and vertex smooth and shiny, with very isolated setiferous punctures. Posterior ocellus separated from eye once its maximum diameter. Distance between hind ocelli 0.71–0.80× maximum diameter of posterior ocellus. Occipital carina strong and complete. Face with fine, setiferous punctures, distance between punctures at least twice the diameter of punctures. Clypeal suture straight ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ). Clypeus 1.63–2.1× as broad as medially long, weakly convex dorsally, concave ventrally, apical margin truncate. Clypeal tentorial pits conspicuous ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ). Malar space 0.9–1.0× as long as basal mandibular width, with a granulate narrow and weak sulcus between eye and mandible.

Colouration ( Figs 8B View FIGURE 8 , 10 View FIGURE 10 ). As female, but head black with posterior white cream eye orbit usually interrupted at dorsal part of gena ( Fig. 10C View FIGURE 10 ), ventral part of gena behind mandible base, dark brown and a spot just behind posterior ocelli red. Mesosoma ( Figs 10 View FIGURE 10 D–10E) with propleuron entirely, anterior margin and posterior corner of pronotum, tegula, subalar prominence, ventral part of mesopleuron and mesosternum, posterior part of metapleuron, lateral stripes on posterior part of propodeum, white cream; epicnemium reddish to dark brown; tergites I–VI with a pair of conspicuous subapical lateral whitish marks ( Fig. 10G View FIGURE 10 ); posterior margin of tergites II–VI black ( Fig. 10F View FIGURE 10 ). Front and mid legs, white; mid tarsi infuscate dorsally; hind leg with anterior and posterior wide mark on coxa, basal mark on trochanter, base and lateral anterior and posterior longitudinal stripes on femur, tibia except mid part, and distal part of tarsi widely, brown ( Fig. 8B View FIGURE 8 ).
Other features as in female.
Etymology: The specific name “ speculata ” derives from the Latin word “ specula ” which means eyeglasses in reference to the entirely white cream eye orbits of female.
