Chilicola; Colletidae -- Andes. Fig. 20. Lateral views of metasomas of males, a, Clulicoln {H\/lacosoiiin} belli; b, C. (H.) innhmata; c, C. (H.) canci. Drawings by Robert W. Brooks. Male; Lower part of the clypeus with ill-defined trian- gular yellow area in holotype, absent in some paratypes, median point (upper part brownish) extending to upper third of clypeus in holotype; the following parts yellow: labrum, mandible


. The bee genus Chilicola in the tropical Andes : with observations on nesting biology and a phylogenetic analysis of the subgenera (Hymenoptera: Colletidae, Xeromelissinae). Chilicola; Colletidae -- Andes. Fig. 20. Lateral views of metasomas of males, a, Clulicoln {H\/lacosoiiin} belli; b, C. (H.) innhmata; c, C. (H.) canci. Drawings by Robert W. Brooks. Male; Lower part of the clypeus with ill-defined trian- gular yellow area in holotype, absent in some paratypes, median point (upper part brownish) extending to upper third of clypeus in holotype; the following parts yellow: labrum, mandible (except dark apex), posterior part of pronotal lobe, apices of femora, bases and apices of tibiae (rest of front tibia brownish yellow, basal third to almost half of hind tibia yellow), tarsi (distal segments reddish yellow on mid and hind legs). Face about times longer than broad. Hairs of head and thorax mostly dusky, only about half as long as ocellar diameter, about as long as ocellar diameter and pale on upper gena, preoccipital ridge, mesepisternum, and on metasoma where thev form weak, whitish lateral tergal fasciae (see subgeneric description). Head surface closely punctate and therefore dull except for small shiny impunctate area lateral to lateral ocellas and shiny interspaces (mostly less than a puncture width) on lower genal and hypostomal areas. Preoccipital ridge sharp, almost carinate, strong depression across head an- terior to ridge, which is distant from lateral ocellus by about ocellar diameters. Antennal flagellum about times as wide apically as basally (segment 2), first and third flagellar segments about as long as broad, second broader than long, middle and preapical flagellar segments about times as long as broad. Scutum, scutellum, and side of thorax with strong punctures mostly separated by half a puncture width (more on mesepisternum) of shining ground; erect hairs on scutum inconspicuous, about half as long as ocellar diameter; prop
