Diagnosis (female). Antenna short and stout, gradually expanding towards apex, clava solid (Fig. 1010); genal carina present; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 96 View Figs 96–99 ) with weak and indistinct submedian grooves, meshes elongate; propodeum ( Fig. 96 View Figs 96–99 ) with a median carina that splits in posterior part (inverted Y-shaped carina), not raised in anterior part; hind coxa without carina along posterior margin; petiole transverse with strong sculpture; gaster ( Fig. 96 View Figs 96–99 ) 2.4× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt 1 with a short rectangular incision; Gt 2 0.2× as long as Gt 4, Gt 1 with weak reticulation, distinctly more shiny than remaining tergites.

Female holotype: length of body 2.2mm.

Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel pale brown, flagellum dark brown. Face below level of toruli golden-green, frons metallic bluish-green, clypeus dark brown, antennal scrobes black. Vertex metallic bluish-green. Mesoscutum, mesocutellum and propodeum golden-green. Legs with fore and hind coxae golden-green, mid coxa black with metallic tinges; trochanters and femora dark brown to black, femora with metallic tinges; tibiae yellowish-brown; T1–3 yellowish-brown, T4 brown. Petiole black. Gaster golden-green; gonoplac black.

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

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without a median groove, with seven adnotaular setae, ± in one row. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation, meshes elongate; submedian grooves weak but traceable, wide apart, slightly curved and diverging towards posterior part; anterior pair of setae placed medially. Dorsellum with strong reticulation. Propodeum with median carina strongly expanding in posterior part, anterior part not raised; callus with two setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation, hind coxa without carina along posterior margin. Fore wing with five setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum closed; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster ovate-elongate; medio-basal Gt 1 with a short rectangular incision, with weak reticulation and shiny, remaining tergites with strong reticulation.
