Gonatopus emelyanovi Ponomarenko & Olmi 2006: 7 .

Description. ♀. Apterous; body length 2.6–4.1 mm. Completely yellow-testaceous, except petiole black. Antenna clavate; antennomeres in following proportions: 7:5:12:7:5:5:4.5:4.5:4.5:6.5. Head excavated, shiny, with frons almost completely unsculptured (granulate only near clypeus) and occiput granulate; frontal line complete; occipital carina absent; temple distinct; POL = 1; OL = 1; OOL = 7; greatest breadth of lateral ocelli about as long as OL. Palpal formula 6/3. Pronotum shiny, unsculptured, crossed by strong transverse impression. Mesoscutum shiny, unsculptured, without lateral pointed apophyses. Mesoscutellum shiny, smooth, sloping anteriorly. Metanotum deeply excavated behind mesoscutellum (Fig. 192E), flat, strongly transversely striate. Metapectal-propodeal disc shiny, unsculptured; propodeal declivity transversely striate. Metapectal-propodeal disc laterally rounded. Mesopleuron shiny, very slightly granulate. Metapleuron dull, very slightly transversely striate. Meso-metapleural suture distinct and complete. Protarsomeres in following proportions: 12:2:4.5:11:18. Enlarged claw (Fig. 191C) with one large subdistal tooth and one row of 6–8 lamellae + one subdistal bristle. Protarsomere 5 of holotype (Fig. 191C) with two rows of 2 + 8 lamellae; apex with one lamella. Protarsomere 5 of specimen from Mozambique, Cuamba, with two rows of 3 + 12 lamellae; apex with at least 12 lamellae. Tibial spurs 1/0/1.
