Length of body 4.5 mm, of fore wing 4.7 mm and of antenna 6.0 mm.

Antenna with 42 flagellomeres. Terminal flagellomere acuminate. Median flagellomeres approximately 2.3 x longer than wide. Occipital carina broadly obliterated medially, ventrally joining hypostomal carina. Mesopleuron largely aciculate, anteriorly and dorsally rugose, precoxal sulcus rather strongly impressed, strongly rugose, specular area entirely aciculate. Propodeum with complete midlongitudinal carina. Fore wing vein 1-CU1 distinctly thickened. Fore wing vein 2-CU1 1.2 x 1-CU1. Apex of fore wing subbasal cell evenly setose. Fore wing vein 3-SR 2.5 x vein r. Fore wing vein 2-SR+M 1 x vein r. Fore wing vein SR1 2.1 x vein 3-SR. Hind wing vein M+CU 1.3 x 1-M. Hind wing subbasal cell evenly setose. Hind wing vein m-cu absent. Apex of hind tibia without comb of specialised adpressed setae. Claws without conspicuous pecten. Basal lobes of 1 st tergite weakly produced, concave posteriorly. Midlongitudinal carina of 3 rd tergite well differentiated on anterior 0.5, weak posteriorly. Posterolateral margin of 4 th metasomal tergite hardly emarginate.

Etymology. Created from ‘macula’ and ‘occiput’ in reference to the dark mark near the occipital carina.
