Sakagami et al. (1996) describe this and other species of the genus Sudila, which they reinterpret as a sub-genus of Lasioglossum. This subgenus is confined to the mountains of south Asia, and was formerly noted for the presence of "cephalitic gigantism" in the males. That is, some males had very large heads, while others did not. However, Sakagami et al. (1996) show that some species in this group do not have males with this trait. They present photos, illustrations, and distribution maps of all the species in the Sudila group. Lasioglossum aulacophorum is a medium sized (7.6-8.5 mm long) black bee. It's distribution is the mountainous areas of central Sri Lanka. No information is presented on the social or nesting biology of this species. This species does not show male cephalitic gigantism.
