Description
Female: Length of body 12 mm, of fore wing 10 mm, of ovipositor 12 mm.
Antennae with 95 flagellomeres, terminal flagellomere 2.0 times longer than wide. Height of clypeus:inter-tentorial distance:tentorio-ocular distance51.0:5.2:3.6. Width of face:width of head:height of eye51.2:2.1:1.0. Height of face:width of face51.0:1.8. Sculpture on face pustulate with punctulation. Clypeus rugose. Frons not depressed, smooth, with medial longitudal groove. POL:transverse diameter of posterior ocellus: shortest distance between posterior ocellus and eye51.0:1.3:2.6. Length of eye in dorsal view:distance of occiput and posterior margin of eye51.4:1.0.
Mesosoma approximately 2.0 times longer than maximally deep.
Fore wing: length of veins r:3-SR:SR151.0:2.2:3.1. Length of veins 2-SR:3-SR:rm51.0:2.5:1.1. Length of veins m-cu:2-M51.0:2.9. Length of veins 1-CU1:2- CU151.0:6.2. Shape of vein 1-SR+M slightly un evenly wavy. Swelling in vein 3-CU1 1.1 times thicker than the other part of the vein.
Legs: Length of fore femur:tibia:tarsus52.1:2.5:1.0. Fore basitarsus 5.0 times longer than deep. Length of hind femur:tibia:tarsus52.3:3.1:1.0. Hind basitarsus 5.3 times longer than deep.
First metasomal tergite 1.7 times longer than wide; raised median area smooth with a weak medial longitudinal groove and strigation on posterior margin. Second tergite 1.5 times wider than long; medial area raised and strigose. Antero-medial triangular area raised and smooth. Third tergite 1.5 times wider than long; with strigated transverse furrows on anterior and subposterior margins, raised median area narrow and strigated, medial area raised and forming a notch. Antero-lateral areas smooth. Tergites four and five with strigated transverse furrows on anterior and subposterior margins, medial and anterolateral areas smooth. Tergites six to eight smooth.
Yellow except for the following which are black: antenna, frons, vertex, occiput, apex of mandibles and ovipositor sheets. Wings fairly evenly darkened, with hyaline areas in fore wing below pterostigma and in hind wing in the base on the marginal cells.
