Z. bicolor (Enderlein, 1912)
- Legs and palpi pale reddish brown to brownish yellow, but hind tarsus sometimes darkened; head and mesosoma with medium-sized and rather inconspicuous setae; frons with medium-sized medial protuberance; middle tarsus shorter than tibia; face rugose-punctate, rugulose-punctate or reticulate-punctate; [setae of hind tibia variable, frequently medium-sized and about equal to maximum width of tibia].................................................................... 3
3 Second and third metasomal tergites laterally and a transverse patch of fourth–sixth tergites black; pronotal side largely coarsely punctate; apical half of fourth metasomal tergite striate; hind tibia with erect and long setae; [base of fore wing with reddish veins]............................................................ Z. nigrobalteatus (Cameron, 1906)
