Mesoscutellum with submedian grooves curved and diverging towards posterior part, with transverse carinae and with outer margin indistinct, median part with very weak reticulation and with a very weak median groove in anterior one-third, reticulation with elongate meshes, lateral parts rugose. Dorsellum with weak reticulation, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that expands in posterior part; predominantly with strong irregular carinae, laterally with some reticulation; callus with five setae. Fore and mid coxae with weak reticulation, hind coxa with strong reticulation. Fore wing with 7&9 setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open towards base of wing; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole very short, just a narrow band. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt 1 with longitudinal carinae laterally; tergites with strong reticulation.
