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

However, based on the "pronotal collar characteristics for populations in Maricopa Co., - yellowish" then "apache"

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.
