Diceroprocta apache
Pronotal characteristics and coloration support D. apache

Although the pronotal characteristics used to distinguish apache from semicincta seem to work in the Sonoran region of se. Arizona, not so further north.

NOTE: There is still some debate as to how one can accurately make a clear distincton among cinctifera, apache and semicincta.

All three are very similar on several levels and subject to geographic variability (with over lap). Use of the male operculae and shape seems preferred.

The calls of the three taxa are also quite similar and may not be adequately diagnostic for species id. in the field (?).
