Material examined. PAKISTAN: Quetta, v.1902, 1♀, leg. C.G. Nurse, NHMUK (holotype). Remarks: Gusenleitner & Schwarz (2002) listed this species as part of the subgenus Lepidandrena . Examination of the holotype ( Figures 31A–D View FIGURE 31 ) shows that this species displays a very broad and flattened clypeus, short and broad process of the labrum that is four times wider than long, weakly punctate mesepisternum, smooth propodeal triangle that contrasts the weakly punctate dorsolateral parts of the propodeum, and a lack of short squamous hairs on the scutum. It is therefore transferred to the subgenus Leimelissa .
Distribution: Pakistan (Quetta; Nurse 1904).
