COMMENTS. Holotype of this species was described as male (Chemyreva,

2015), but designation of the sex in the types have been wrong. Actually, all type specimens (holotype and four paratypes) are females.

DESCRIPTION. Male (hitherto unknown) ( Figs 24, 25 ). Body length 1.4–1.6

mm. Similar to female, but differs mainly in antennal structures and metasoma construction. Antenna as long as whole body length or longer, A1 and A2 yellowish brown, follows segments brown. A3 entirely with long setae. A4 with emargination and keel developed from base to 3/4 of segments length or to top of segments. A4–

A13 with ranges of long setae medially, A5–A13 fusiform ( Fig. 25 ). Ratios of length to width of antennal segments: 16:3; 6:3.5; 10:2.5; 9:3.5; 8:3; 8:3; 8:3; 8:3;

7.5:3; 7:3; 7:3; 6.5:3; 7.5:2.5. Petiole longer than female and distinctly elongate

(13:5), distinctly paler than mesosoma, yellowish brown to brown.

VARIATION. Body length 1.4–1.7 mm. A1 and A2 yellow to yellowish brown.

A3 yellow to brown. A10–A12 elongated and fusiform to almost globe shaped. Propodeum and petiole pale brown, distinctly paler than mesosoma. Upper mesonotal suture of all speciments asetose.

DISTRIBUTION. Japan (Honshu, Kyushu), China (Yunnan, Hubei, * Guangdong,
