Abstract

An unusual deformity is reported for a female of the augochlorine bee Caenaugochlora (Caenaugochlora) inermis (Vachal). The individual has malformations of the vertex which resulted in two additional lateral ocelli near the compound eyes and apparently a forward contraction of the vertex shifting the ocellar triangle further into the upper frons. A brief account and figure of the specimen is provided.
