Description
Body length of female: 4.28–4.90 mm (n=20). Body length of male: 4.30–4.73mm (n=20). Length of A3 in male: longer than A2. Punctation of frons above antennal scrobe: sparse. Sculpture of antennal scrobe: smooth. Central keel: absent. Sculpture of ventrolateral frons: punctate rugose. Occipital carina: interrupted medially. Sculpture of posterior vertex: smooth with sparse punctures. Sculpture of gena: sparsely punctate. Sculpture of occiput: densely finely punctate.
Color of mesosoma: black. Sculpture of dorsal pronotal area: punctate rugose. Sculpture of lateral pronotal area: smooth anteriorly, foveate posteriorly. Sculpture of netrion: coarsely striate. Setae of netrion: sparse throughout. Sculpture of notaulus: discretely punctate. Sculpture of mesoscutal midlobe: densely and finely punctate along anterior margin, sparsely punctate along posterior margin, otherwise smooth. Sculpture of lateral lobe of mesoscutum: smooth. Sculpture of lateral propodeal area: rugose. Setation of mesoscutellum: sparse. Sculpture of mesoscutellum: coarsely punctate rugose. Median propodeal projection: short. Mesopleural carina: weakly developed. Sculpture of mesepisternum anteroventral to mesopleural depression: largely smooth with sparse punctures. Sculpture of dorsal metapleural area: smooth. Sculpture of ventral metapleural area: punctate rugose. Setation of ventral metapleural area: dense. Color of legs: dark brown to black. Sculpture of hind coxa: densely punctate.
Color of metasoma: black. T1 horn in female: present. Sculpture of posterior margin of T1 in female: densely longitudinally striate, punctate rugulose in interstices. Transverse sulcus on T2: present. Sculpture of T2–T5: densely longitudinally striate, with fine punctures in interstices. Sculpture of T6 in female: densely punctate. Length of T6 in female: distinctly longer than wide. Apex of T6 in female: round. Sculpture of S2: sparsely longitudinally striate medially, with fine punctures in interstices, irregularly finely punctate laterally. Sculpture of T1 in male: densely longitudinally striate, punctate rugulose in interstices. Male T8 apical spine: present.
Diagnosis
This species is most similar to H. spinosa but can be distinguished by the round apex of T6 in females and the absence of a spine on the apex of T8 in males.
Etymology
The epithet is inspired by the Latin word for a rough, uneven road, in reference to the glabrous netrion sulcus adjacent to the setose posterior portion of the netrion, and is intended to be treated as a noun in apposition.
