Description
Female. Body length 4.76–5.90 mm (n=6).
Color. Body black; mandible reddish brown to black; palpi yellow; hind coxa dark brown to nearly black, remainder of legs yellow to light brown; A1–A6 yellow, remainder of antenna dark brown to black; fore wing hyaline.
Head. Transverse in dorsal view, 1.40–1.54× as wide as long, slightly wider than mesosoma; lateral ocellus contiguous with inner orbit of compound eye; POL 1.73–1.83× LOL; occipital carina interrupted medially; central keel well developed, extending onto interantennal process (Plate 54A); medial frons smooth dorsally, obliquely strigose ventrally; ventrolateral frons punctate rugose; frons below median ocellus and vertex punctate reticulate; gena dorsoventrally strigose below malar sulcus, otherwise punctate rugose; length of A3 1.07–1.15× length of A2.
Mesosoma. Cervical pronotal area densely punctate; dorsal pronotal area areolate; lateral pronotal area smooth dorsally, rugulose ventrally; netrion punctate rugulose; notaulus narrow, foveolate; middle lobe of mesoscutum densely punctate, becoming reticulate anteriorly; lateral lobes of mesoscutum moderately punctate throughout; mesoscutellum densely punctate throughout; metascutellum rectangular (Plate 54B), posterior margin slightly convex, extending to gap between propodeal lobes, irregularly areolate rugose; propodeum medially divided into two widely separated subtriangular lobes (Plate 54B), each side with rugose sculpture covered by dense, recumbent, white setae; upper mesepisternum with a row of fine longitudinal carinae below subalar pit; lower mesepisternum variably smooth to punctate rugulose; mesopleural depression smooth (Plate 54C); metapleuron smooth dorsally, punctate rugulose ventrally.
Legs. Robust; hind femur strongly swollen, 2.47–2.94× as long as its maximum width; hind tibia without spines over outer surface; hind basitarsus 4.50–5.00× as long as its maximum width.
Wings. Apex of fore wing extending beyond posterior margin of T5; R 1.50–1.89× as long as r-rs, R1 1.47–1.77× length of R.
Metasoma. Posterior margin of transverse sulcus on T2 slightly convex (Plate 54D); sublateral tergal carinae obscured by longitudinal surface striae; T1 punctate rugose anteriorly, densely striate posteriorly; T2–T5 densely longitudinally striate with numerous large delicate punctures in interstices; T6 punctate rugulose dorsally, longitudinally striate laterally, with scattered small punctures in interstices; length of T3 0.69–0.78× length of T6; T5 slightly longer than wide; S2–S6 densely longitudinally striate, with numerous punctures in interstices; prominent longitudinal median carina obscured by longitudinal surface striae.
Male. Differing from female as follows: body length 5.00 mm (n=2); A1–A5 yellow to brown, A6–A12 dark brown, becoming darker apically; propodeum continuous medially (Plate 55A), not divided into two separated lobes, posterior margin excavate medially, each side with several irregular longitudinal carinae medially, otherwise rugose; sublateral tergal carinae developed on T1–T2; T1 sparsely longitudinally striate, with scattered punctures in interstices anteriorly; T2–T6 longitudinally punctate rugulose; T7 transversely striate posteriorly; T6 slightly longer than wide; length of T6 2.56–2.86× length of T7; T7 transverse, apex truncate (Plate 55B); length of T7 0.83–0.84× length of S7; S2–S7 densely longitudinally striate, with numerous punctures in interstices; prominent longitudinal median carina present on S2–S4.
