Very difficult to recognize as a separate species within its group of relationship. On the basis of the redescription (FISCHER 1971) nearest to S. reducta Tobias, 1962 (USSR: environment of Leningrad, Austria), the two species are differentiated but few features: S. fraudulentus sp. n. S. reducta Tobias 1. Middle tooth of mandible pointed, upper and 1. All three teeth of mandible pointed (Abb. lower teeth blunt to rounded (Fig. 13) 54 in Fischer 1971, p. 143). 2. Face distinctly twice wider than high. 2. Face 1.5 times wider than high. 3. Temple in lateral view broader than eye 3. Temple in lateral view as broad as eye. (Fig. 14). 4. Scape and tegula dark brown, legs brown. 4. Scape, tegula and legs yellow. Also related to S. nitidula Masi, 1933 (Italy) and to S. lacessiva Fischer, 1975 (Austria), the three species are differentiated in a tabular form: S. fraudulentus sp. n. S. nitidula Masi 1. Head in dorsal view somewhat broader bet- 1. Head in dorsal view equal In breadth between temples than between eyes (Fig. 15), ween eyes and templea. 2. Face distinctly twice as wide as high. 2. Face 1.5 times as wide as high. 3. Hind femur 4.4 times longer than broad 3. Hind femur 3.5 times longer than broad. (Fig. 16). 4. First tergite polished. 4. First tergite feebly striato-rugulose . 5. Ovipositor sheath as long as one-thirdth of 5. Ovipositor sheath as long as half abdomen, abdomen, 6. Scape and tegula dark brown, legs, brown. 6, Scape, tegula and legs yellow.
