Diagnosis. Head transverse ( Figs 2H View FIGURE 2 , 4G View FIGURE 4 ); antenna slender, filiform ( Figs 2I View FIGURE 2 , 4I View FIGURE 4 ); face and vertex behind ocelli smooth to densely granulate, clypeus flat and densely punctate ( Figs 2G View FIGURE 2 , 4F View FIGURE 4 ); eyes setose ( Figs 2J View FIGURE 2 , 4H View FIGURE 4 ); mesoscutum evenly convex, transverse suture distinct; scutellar suture comparatively deep; propodeum coarsely reticulate-rugose with transversal carina ( Figs 2C View FIGURE 2 , 4C View FIGURE 4 ); metasomal carapace with the straight elongate apex ( Figs 2D View FIGURE 2 , 4D View FIGURE 4 ).
