D e s c r i p t i o n: ♀: Body length 8-9.5 mm. Antenna with 33-35 flagellomeres; 1 st flagellomere 4.0× longer than wide and 0.55× as long as eye; preapical flagellomere 1.1- 1.3× longer than wide. Temple moderately and roundly narrowed behind eye, dorsally c. 0.4× as long as eye. OED 1.6-1.8× and OOD 2.0× ocellar diameter. Frons rather densely punctate, moderately swollen laterally and impressed medially. Face densely punctate. Clypeus 1.8-1.9× wider than long, with scattered punctures, apical margin rounded. MI 0.85-0.9. Genal carina reaching mandibular base.

Mesosoma with coarse dense punctures, 1.5× longer than high. Frontoventral edge of pronotum moderately curved; lateral pronotal groove smooth. Epicnemial carina low, without or with ± distinct low carina in transversal part, with low carina on pleural part. Speculum punctate. Propodeum with complete apical transversal carina. Hind femur 4.8- 4.9× longer than wide. Hind metatarsus 0.7× as long as hind femur. 2 nd hind tarsomere 1.3× longer than 3 rd one. Hind claw with long teeth, moderately curved apically. Areolet stalked; 2 nd recurrent vein in its middle. Nervulus almost interstitial. Hairs on basal cell much shorter than their intervals. Hind wing with 8 distal hamuli.

Metasoma stout. 1 st tergite 1.35-1.45× longer than wide, with rather dense coarse punctures laterally. 2 nd tergite 1.05-1.15× wider than long, with dense punctures. 3 rd tergite 1.1-1.2× wider than long, with dense punctures. Ovipositor 1.2-1.35× longer than

Color: Mainly yellow. Flagellum reddish, black basally; scape sometimes yellow ventrally. Head yellow; mandibular teeth, median stripe on face, frons medially, stemmaticum and occiput black. Mesosoma mainly yellow; three stripes on mesoscutum, scuto-scutellar groove, ventral and posterior margins of pronotum, wide margins of mesopleuron, mesosternum, margins of metapleuron and two oblique paramedian stripes on propodeum black. 1 st to 5 th tergites red, with wide apical yellow bands. 1 st to 3 rd tergites with subbasal and lateral yellow bands. 6 th and 7 th tergites often brownish. Fore and mid legs yellow, fore and mid femora often with brown dorsal stripes. Hind coxa and trochanter black, hind coxa yellow dorsally; hind trochantellus yellow; hind femur and tibia yellow, reddish or blackish ventrally. All tarsi reddish-yellow. Wings hyaline; pterostigma brown, yellowish proximally.

Hind metatarsus 0.7× as long as hind femur. 2 nd hind tarsomere 1.2× longer than 3 rd one. Hind claw with long teeth. Areolet stalked; 2 nd recurrent vein in its middle. Nervulus postfurcal by 1-2× its width. Hairs on basal cell much shorter than their intervals. Hind wing with 8 distal hamuli.

1 st tergite 1.5× longer than wide, with rather dense coarse punctures laterally. 2 nd tergite 1.0-1.1× wider than long, with dense punctures. 3 rd tergite 1.0-1.1× wider than long, with dense punctures.
