Diagnosis (female). Antennal clava solid (Fig. 1055); scape slightly expanded in lower half (Fig. 1055); genal carina absent; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 238 View Figs 236–239 ) with strong reticulation, meshes elongate, without median groove, submedian grooves distinct, straight and converging towards posterior part, with two pairs of setae on lateral parts, one pair close to posterior margin of mesoscutellum and one pair placed medially; dorsellum without median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 238 View Figs 236–239 ) with very strong reticulation, callus with two setae; petiole very short, just a narrow band; gaster ( Fig. 238 View Figs 236–239 ) 1.9× as long as wide, tergites with strong reticulation; dark brown to black non-metallic species ( Figs 238, 239 View Figs 236–239 ).

Female holotype: length of body 1.7mm (paratypes 1.4–1.8mm).

Scape and pedicel yellowish-brown, funiculars pale brown and clava dark brown. Head, mesosoma and mesosoma dark brown to black. Legs with coxae dark brown to black; trochanters yellowish-brown; femora dark brown; tibiae yellowish-brown; T1–3 yellowish-brown, T4 brown.

Antenna with solid clava. Frons with strong reticulation; without genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without median groove, with six scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation, meshes elongate; submedian grooves distinct, straight and converging towards posterior part; with two pairs of setae on lateral parts, one pair close to posterior margin of mesoscutellum and one pair placed medially. Dorsellum with strong reticulation, without median carina. Propodeum with a wide median carina that expands both anteriorly and posteriorly; with very strong reticulation; callus with two 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 closed; costal setal row broken.

Petiole very short, just a narrow band. Gaster ovate-elongate; tergites with strong reticulation.
