Differential diagnosis

Scipopus (Phaeopterina) guatemalensis resembles the sympatric S. (Ph.) quetzal sp. nov. and S. (Ph.) uniformis sp. nov. in having a brown median stripe on the clypeus, but it differs by the combination of the medially bare clypeus, the bright orange subapical band on the mid femur and the relatively flat female cervical sclerite.
