I captured a specimen, & examined under my dissecting scope for the "small, rounded, jugal lobe" on the rear hind wing of Nomadini... as shown in the figure E [photo/ drawing] below... there is a jugal lobe; but is is much like the figure F illustration. Not sure if this "E-type" lobe applies to ALL genera within the Nomadinae sub-family; or just the Nomadini [Nomada sp.] tribe..?? The Triepeolus lunatus species which I mentioned above is a different tribe entirely. I forwarded this thread to a couple entomologists... maybe someone can clear this up... thankx again for help...
