Body mostly yellow except for following: flagellomeres 2–6 (proximal half), 14–34, face except laterally, clypeus except basal half, frons anteriorly, ocellar area, vertex and occiput, temple, pronotum except laterally, propleuron, mesoscutum, metanotum, mesopleuron, wing venation, anterior half of second metasomal tergite, metasomal tergites 3–4, metasomal tergite 5 anteriorly dark brown to black, telotarsi, mid tarsus, hind femur and tibia distally, ovipositor sheath brown.</p><p>Male. Similar to female except: body length 6.9 mm, antenna with 35 antennomeres, face yellow except medio-longitudinally, clypeus completely yellow, frons medially black, mesopleuron with yellow patch posteriorly, area superomedia wider than long, second metasomal tergite completely yellow, flagellomeres 1–11, 15–33, brown, 12–14 yellow. Gonostyle narrow, ‘ finger-like’.</p><p>Variation.</p><p>One female paratype with wider longitudinal yellowish patch on face laterally and clypeus completely yellow.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Oriental region (India).</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>APR dedicates this species in honor of Vedan (Hirandas Murali), a contemporary singer from Kerala whose work transcends musical boundaries and resonates across political and cultural divides. Vedan‘s music is noted for its capacity to inspire reflection, unity, and dialogue among individuals of differing political and cultural views, offering a sonic space where contrasting ideologies can intersect through shared emotional and aesthetic experience. This name pays tribute to the artist’s unique role in fostering connection and empathy in an increasingly polarized world.</p><p>Comparative diagnosis.</p><p>The new species is morphologically closer to H. brevispinus sp. nov., based on the shape of the area superomedia and colour of the frons. Apart from the differences cited in the identification key, H. vedani sp. nov. differs from H. brevispinus sp. nov. by the following: clypeus yellow in ventral half (dark brown in H. brevispinus sp. nov.), malar space 1.9 × as long as basal width of mandible (1.1 × in H. brevispinus sp. nov.) and first tergite 4.5 × as long as anterior width (5.1 × in H. brevispinus sp. nov.).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A9E07C85186953BA8355E05F8D8AF349	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
