บทคัดย่อ :
A new species of anthidiine bee (Megachilidae: Megachilinae:
Anthidiini), Anthidiellum (Ranthidiellum) ignotum sp. n., is described and figured
from northeastern Thailand, the furthest North this subgenus has yet been recorded.
The species is distinguished from its congeners, being most similar to A. (R.) apicepilosum
(Dover) in the coloration of the legs, but is otherwise quite unique for the
group. A provisional key to the species of Ranthidiellum is provided.
