Diagnosis (female). Antenna with a weak constriction between C1 and C2 (Fig. 1080); genal carina present; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 442 View Figs 440–443 ) with submedian grooves with outer margin indistinct, median part with weak reticulation and shiny, lateral parts rugose, with a very weak but ±complete median groove; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 442 View Figs 440–443 ) with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation, callus with eight setae; petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part; gaster ( Fig. 442 View Figs 440–443 ) 1.7× as long as wide with apex pointed, medio-basal Gt1 with longitudinal carinae, tergites with rather strong reticulation.

Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel pale brown, flagellum dark brown. Head with frons golden-green, scrobes black, clypeus dark brown; vertex golden-green. Mesosoma golden-green. Legs with coxae golden-green; trochanters yellowish-brown; femora dark brown in basal half and yellowish-brown in apical half; tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt1 and Gt4-7 golden green, Gt2-3 black dorsally and golden-green on lateral parts; gonoplac dark brown.

Antenna with a weak constricition between C1 and C2. Face below level of toruli with strong reticulation, clypeal area smooth, frons rugose, scrobes with weak reticulation; with short genal carina. Vertex with strong wrinkled sculpture. Occipital margin with a carina behind ocellar triangle, rounded lateral to ocellar triangle.

Mesoscutellum with outer margin of submedian grooves absent, median part with weak reticulation and with a very weak median groove, lateral parts rugose, with 12 setae. Dorsellum with strong reticulation, with median carina. Propodeum with a wide median carina that expands in posterior part; with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation; callus with eight setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation. Fore wing with five setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open towards base of wing; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster ovate; medio-basal Gt1 with four longitudinal carinae; tergites with weak reticulation; gonoplac with apex pointed.
