This species can be distinguished from other Neotropical Labena species by a combination of the following characters: propodeum with a square area basalis, area superomedia clearly delineated anteriorly and posteriorly; area petiolaris not separated from the area dentipara and area postero-externa; mid tibia with a row of robust, flattened setae on the outer surface.</p><p>Remarks. Additional characters from the material examined from the states of Amazonas, Maranhão, Rio de Janeiro, Rondônia, Roraima, São Paulo (Brazil). Body length 8.8–15.8 mm, except ovipositor. Overall coloration is yellow-orange (Figs. 27A–D; 28A–D). Head (Figs. 27B–C; 28B–C). Transverse black band between the occipital carina and occiput; transverse black band on ocelli, extending to the side of frons. Antenna with 38 flagellomeres, measuring 7.7−12.4 mm, with cylindrical apex; flagellum black, flagellomeres XVII–XXVII pale yellow, flagellomeres XXXVIII yellow-orange. Mandible bidentate with striate base, the upper tooth larger than the lower tooth; mandible basal width 0.18−0.34 mm. Malar space width 0.14 mm. Ocellus diameter 0.43 mm; distance between anterior and posterior ocellus 0.09 mm; shortest distance between posterior ocellus and compound eye 0.21 mm; distance between posterior ocelli 0.19 mm. Compound eye length 1.68 mm. Face slightly convex, not punctate, without fine, sparse setae, width 0.92 mm. Face not very striate, width 0.72 mm. Wing. Fore wing length 11.7 mm, hyaline with a light brown spot at apex; areolet wider than the length of distal abscissa of M, with 3rs-m distinctly smaller than 2rs-m. Hind wing length 8.35 mm. Mesosoma. Mesoscutum without black border, with three longitudinal black bands. Pronotum without epomia, without the upper posterior part punctate, and with sparse setae. Propleuron punctate and with sparse setae. Scuto-scutellar groove black, shallow, smooth. Scutellum flat, punctate with sparse setae, pale yellow without black posterior part. Metanotum (postscutellum) without black posterior part. Propodeum anterior part without black transverse band; area basalis square, wider than long, completely orangish-yellow; area externa as wider as long, without black diagonal spot; area dentipara without spot, confluent with area posteroexterna; area posteroexterna with dark brown spot; area petiolaris not obliterated by lateromedian longitudinal carina, no black upper part; area superomedia wider than long, anterior transverse carina and posterior transverse carina very outlined; lateral longitudinal carina complete. Fore legs with one tibial spur, tarsomeres with fringe of apical setae; mid legs with medially dilated tibiae, with two tibial spurs and slender setae, aligned on the outer surface; hind legs slender, not medially dilated, with the pale yellow tibia and tarsomeres, with two tibial spurs. Metasoma (Figs. 27E – 28E). Tergite I 1.97 mm in length, basal width 0.36 mm and apical width 0.73 mm; tergite II measuring 1.38 mm in length, basal width 0.76 mm and apical width 1.05 mm; tergite III 1.35 mm in length, basal width 1.05 mm and apical width 1.25 mm. Metasoma dark brown with tergite I dark brown and basal and apical spots pale yellow; tergite II dark brown with a pale yellow base. Ovipositor laterally compressed, apex not tapering; upper valve with sparse teeth and marked pre-apical transverse striae; lower valve with marked proximal teeth.</p><p>Distribution. Mexico, Costa Rica, Brazil (Roraima *, Amazonas*, Rondônia *, Maranhão *, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro * and São Paulo *) (Fig. 29) (Gauld 2000; Khalaim &amp; Ruiz-Cancino 2009; Yu et al. 2016; Fernandes et al. 2025)</p><p>Discussion. Labena espinita is morphologically similar to the other species of the genus in having mesoscutum smooth to punctuate; propodeum generally with well-defined areas; spiracle elliptical and elongate; metasomal insertion above the insertions of the hind coxa; fore tibia of the female is inflated; fore wing with pentagonal areole and metasoma is quite long. However, it differs from the other species in that it has a propodeum with an area basalis square, area superomedia clearly delineated anteriorly and posteriorly; area petiolaris, area dentipara and area postero-externa confluents; mid tibia with a row of robust, flattened setae on the outer surface.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039087A7FFB4780BE6F23621FB6AFD20	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Labena littoralis can be compared to L. marginata in having propodeum with a black spot on the upper part, a pleural carina outlined with a black spot and scattered setae on the outer surface of the median tibia. However, L. litorallis differs in having the propodeum with an outer area longer than wide, area basalis very transverse, area petiolaris not defined by lateromedian longitudinal carinae or obliterated and thus confluent with the area postero-externa and area dentipara; area lateralis visibly shorter than wide, very transverse. L. marginata has a propodeum with area externa that is visibly wider than longer, area basalis longer than wide, area petiolaris defined by lateromedian longitudinal carinae or obliterated, and area lateralis almost as longer than wide, slightly transverse. This species belongs to the grallator species-group.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039087A7FFA87809E6F23657FCD1FD24	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

From the Latin fuscus = brown, in reference to the brown colors of the body of holotype.</p><p>Host. Unknown.</p><p>Distribution. Brazil (Bahia and Minas Gerais) (Fig. 38).</p><p>Discussion. Labena fusca sp. nov. is morphologically similar to Labena marginata Szépligeti, 1914, as both have a propodeum with the external area wider than long, the lateral area is almost as long as it is wide, slightly transverse, and lateromedian longitudinal carina obliterated. However, Labena fusca sp. nov. differs from Labena marginata by the dark coloration pattern, ranging from dark brown to pale yellow overall the body, the posterior areas of the propodeum being wider than long and base of the hind tibia having a row of setae on the outer surface. Labena marginata has a yellow-orange color pattern all over the body, with some spots on the upper part of the propodeum, upper part of the metapleuron and mesopleuron, and the base of the hind tibia with a cluster of setae on the outer surface. Labena fusca sp. nov. was allocated to the grallator species group, however, it has two characters that do not find into this species group, which are: area superomedia hexagonal and transverse, and the outer surface of the mid tibia with a row of robust flattened setae. However, until a revision of the species groups is carried out and the boundaries are established, we have opted to place Labena fusca sp. nov. in the grallator species group.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039087A7FFA07806E6F2353BFAF2FD24	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, L. guanacasteca is distinguished by the propodeum having an area superomedia confluent with the area petiolaris, and sternite I having a low transverse ridge. L. marginata has a propodeum with a posteriorly closed area superomedia, separating it from the petiolar area, and sternite I do not have a low transverse ridge.

Labena iquitosica resembles L. obscura Gauld, 2000 in having highly modified propodeum with anterior part of the area superomedia forming a rounded conical projection resembling a salience. But it differs L. iquitosica has a predominantly yellow mesosoma (with a touch of orange). L. obscura is predominantly black with yellowish spots. The analyzed specimen of L. iquitosica had a reddish-brown variation in coloration, which differs from the original designation which is completely yellow. This species belongs to the striata species-group.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039087A7FF907836E6F23532FACDFCD0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Labena larae sp. nov. is very similar to Labena striata Townes, 1966, in that both have metapleuron centrally with longitudinal striae, mesoscutum with marked notaulus, and propodeum with elongated area superomedia. However, Labena larae sp. nov. is distinguished by body color being completely orange-yellow, propodeum with the absence of a black spot in the area superomedia, and area dentipara has a rectangular shape. Labena striata, on the other hand, has a yellow body color, propodeum with a black spot in the area superomedia, and area dentipara has a trapezoidal shape. Labena larae sp. nov. was allocated striata species-group.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039087A7FF957834E6F23174FA89F907	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
