Polistes (Fuscopolistes) rubiginosus Lepeletier

Paramere: (1) about two and half times longer than wide at the middle; (2) lateral groove deep; (3) parameral spine medium (about 1/7 the total length of paramere), pointed apically, with long and dense bristles; (4) paramere lobe weakly developed and rounded; (5) inferior portion of paramere wide, about 0,7 the width at the middle portion. Aedeagus: robust; (1) apical portion with prominent denticulation, with small teeth interspersed between the large, extended to the penis valve to the end of median expansion, lateral margin curved; (2) penis valve dilated and with a widely central entrance, weakly bilobed (about 1/3 of the total length of apical portion); (3) median expansion developed and pointed apex; (4) lateral apodeme directed forward and shorter than the ventral process, (5) ventral process rounded and weakly compressed in base; (6) inferior portion of aedeagus curved, in lateral view; (7) aedeagal teeth slightly longer, about 20 in number. Digitus: robust; (1) apical process very reduced; (2) anteroventral lobe long and pointed apically; (3) punctation strong, over the entire digitus base; (4) long and dense bristles, more on lateral margin. Cuspis: not observed.

Remarks. Buck et al. (2012) presented illustrations of the paramere (Fig. 19), digitus (Fig. 27) and aedeagus (Figs. 44, 53, 60), which match our descriptions.
