Diagnosis. Most like L. repraesentans. Both sexes with body black. Female with frons coarsely reticulate, labrum median keel spatulate, lateral ridges weak; mesoscutum anterior margin with bilobed mesial projection, punctation moderately coarse, surface shining, dorsal surface of propodeum ruguloso-striolate, defined by posterolateral angular carinae, posterovertical surface plicate, dorsal rim raised, recessed mesially. Male with S3-S4 with dense long plumose hair across posterior margin, S5 with weak lateral tufts; forewings with 2nd r-m as strong as 1st r-m.
Remarks. Cockerell (1916b) gave the sex of the type of Halictus brazieri as male; however, examination of the specimen reveals that it is female.
