Augochlora (Augochlora) cydippe (Schrottky, 1910) (Figures 11 A–D; 12A–D; 51E) Odontochlora cydippe Schrottky, 1910: 72, holotype, ♀ (MZUSP) from Brazil, São Paulo, Avanhandava. Examined. Diagnosis. Augochlora cydippe has a remarkable body color pattern usually not found in other species: the face and mesoscutum disc have golden and copper reflections and the metasomal terga are dorsally blue with black marks. Females can be diagnosed by the S1 with a tuberculate elevation (as in Fig. 2B) combined with the hypoepimeral area contiguously punctate. Males have the mesoscutum with sparser punctation on disc (I> PD), microreticulate in between, and labrum, antennae and legs lighter in comparison with Augochlora nausicaa, the species with most similar males.
