mocquerysi ^HNS Sides of head behind eyes blanketed by dense reticulate punctate sculpture; sometimes rugulae may also occur in this area.

Propodeal dorsum predominantly or entirely reticulate-punctate, if rugulae occur they are secondary to the punctation. Pronotal dorsum usually with rugae present but with punctate ground-sculpture which is usually conspicuous and dense. Propodeal spines in dorsal view directed more or less evenly backwards, not projecting outwards basally; the spiracle (or at least its annulus) clearly visible from above (Fig. 10).

Propodeal spiracle smaller and some distance away from the margin of the declivity below the spine; diameter of spiracle less than the distance separating the spiracular hind margin from the edge of the declivity at its closest point (Fig. 8).
