( Figs 398, 399 View Figs 396–399 , 794 View Figs 791–798 )

Diagnosis (female). Antenna with solid clava ( Fig. 794 View Figs 791–798 ); genal carina absent; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 398 View Figs 396–399 ) with submedian grooves converging slightly towards posterior part, median part with strong reticulation, with or without a weak median groove in anterior half; dorsellum without median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 398 View Figs 396–399 ) with strong reticulation, callus with two setae; fore wing with two setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; hind coxa with a carina along posterior margin; petiole very short, just a narrow band; gaster ( Fig. 398 View Figs 396–399 ) 2.1× as long as wide, tergites with strong reticulation.

Female holotype: length of body 1.9mm (paratypes 1.7–2.3mm).

Scape and pedicel yellowish-brown, flagellum dark brown. Head with frons with part below level of toruli golden-green with clypeus dark brown, part frons metallic blue, antennal scrobes black with metallic tinges; vertex metallic blue with purple tinges. Mesoscutum and mesoscutellum metallic greenish-blue; propodeum golden-green. Legs with fore and mid coxae dark brown, hind coxa black with golden-green tinges; trochanters yellowish-brown; femora dark brown with apex yellowish-brown, hind femur with metallic tinges; tibiae yellowish-brown; T1–3 yellowish-white, T4 pale brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt1-6 metallic greenish-blue with posterior margin black, Gt

7 black; gonoplac black.

Antenna with a solid clava. Face below level of toruli with rather strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons with strong reticulation, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; genal carina absent. Vertex with strong reticulation.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, slightly elongate on midlobe; with ten scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation and elongate meshes; submedian grooves strong and slightly converging towards posterior part; with seven setae scattered over lateral parts. Dorsellum with strong sculpture, without median carina. Propodeum with a strong and narrow median carina that expands strongly posteriorly; with strong reticulation; callus with two setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation; hind coxa with a carina along posterior margin. Fore wing with two setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open towards base of wing; costal setal row broken.
