LIST OF CHARACTERS ANALYZED USING THE
FMCK METHOD
Asterisks (*) indicate characters that are phylogenetically
informative using FMCK. The numbers of
such characters in the character list (appendix 3) are
given in parentheses.

3. Maximum distance between outer margin of
eyes/distance between the midpoints of genae
from dorsal view
4.* Distance between posterior ocelli/distance
between posterior ocellus and eye (125)
5. Distance between posterior ocellus and eye/
distance between anterior and posterior ocelli
6. Maximum distance between outer margin of
eyes/minimum distance between inner margin
of eyes
7.* Length of first flagellomere/length of pedicel
(126)
8.* Length of first flagellomere/length of second
flagellomere (127)
9. Width of first flagellomere/width of apical
flagellomere
10. Length of apical flagellomere/length of subapical
flagellomere
11. Width of second flagellomere/width of first
flagellomere
12. Width of second flagellomere/distance between
the anterior end of pronotal carina and
the mesoscutal sulcus
13. Height of pronotum/length of posterolateral
margin of pronotum
14. Width/height of pronotum
15. Distance between the anterior point of the
pronotal carina and the mesoscutal sulcus/
height of pronotum
16.* Length of R1/length of 2r of forewing (128)
17. Length/width of submarginal cell of forewing
18. Length/width of metacoxa
19.* Length of first/second metatarsomeres
(129)
20. Length of metasoma/distance between the
anterior point of pronotal carina and the
mesoscutal sulcus
21.* Combined length of abdominal third through
fifth tergua/length of postpetiolar metasoma
(130)
22.* Length of fifth tergum/length of postpetiolar
metasoma (131)
23.* Length of sixth tergum/length of postpetiolar
metasoma (132)
CHARACTERS USED FOR
PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS
Several of the character states are subdivided; that
is, one character state of a main character is more
finely divided in a subsidiary character. For example,
state 1 of character 4 is further subdivided in character
5, indicated by [4:1R] preceding the description.
When multistate characters were treated as ordered in
the analysis, it is so stated. The consistency index (CI)
and retention index (RI) on the most parsimonious
tree are given after each listed character, except for the
three autapomorphies.
