Pentagonica
. Thanks Peter. I had excluded that species, but only based on its absence in the SE in Bousquet & Larochelle.

Pentagonica picticornis
is satisfied by the distinct coloration of parts shown in this image. I don't believe this eastern species was previously reported from GA - at least not in Bousquet & Larochelle (1993). I will forward this page to range compiler Yves Bousquet for his catalogue revision. Very nice!
