[4] Members of Lasioglossum (Dialictus) are small, about 3.4–8.1 mm in size, and distinguished from other halictids by weakened distal veins on the forewings.
[4] Distinguishing between some of the species in Lasioglossum (Dialictus) proves to be difficult due to their “monotonous” morphology and subtle differences.
[3][2] Some species have been named based on geographic distribution and ecological niche rather than using any distinguishing morphological features.
In temperate climates, some female L. (Evylaeus) produce daughters that will remain unfertilized and help with foraging and care for the next generation of offspring.
[8] In colder climates, such as at a higher altitude, females of the same species will exhibit solitary behavior and all the daughters produced will be fertile.
