( Figs 258F, H View FIGURE 258 , 259 View FIGURE 259 )

Diagnosis. ♂ of Madecadryinus with POL about 3 × as long as OOL ( Fig. 258F View FIGURE 258 ) and mesoscutum granulate.

Description. ♂ ( Figs 259 View FIGURE 259 ). Fully winged; body length 1.1–1.5 mm. Head brown, except mandible and clyp- eus testaceous; antenna brown-testaceous; mesosoma brown, occasionally black; metasoma brown-testaceous; legs yellow. Antenna filiform, setose, very slender, about as long as body; antennomeres in following proportions: 5:3:7:8:8:8:8:8:7:8. Head ( Fig. 259C View FIGURE 259 ) convex, shiny, unsculpured; occiput very concave, unsculptured; frontal line absent; central area of frons with slight short median longitudinal furrow; occipital carina complete; ocelli large ( Figs 258F View FIGURE 258 , 259C View FIGURE 259 ); POL = 3; OL = 1; OOL = 1; minimum distance from eyes to occipital carina as long as OL; TL = 4; greatest breadth of lateral ocelli longer than OL (2:1); lateral ocelli touching occipital carina; temple very long, shorter than eye (4:8); clypeus without short median longitudinal keel. Palpal formula 6/3. Mesoscutum ( Fig. 259A View FIGURE 259 ) dull, completely slightly granulate. Notauli complete, posteriorly separated; minimum distance between notauli less than twice as long as breadth of lateral ocelli (3:2). Mesoscutellum and metanotum shiny, unsculptured. Epicnemium exposed. Mesopleuron and metapleuron shiny, unsculptured. Metapectal-propodeal disc and propodeal declivity reticulate rugose, with some areolae as large as tegulae.
