( Figs 576, 577 View Figs 576–579 , 862 View Figs 856–863 )

Diagnosis (female). Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2 ( Fig. 862 View Figs 856–863 ); genal carina present; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 576 View Figs 576–579 ) with outer margin of submedian grooves absent, grooves curved and diverging towards posterior part, median part with very weak reticulation, with a very weak median groove, lateral parts rugose with four scattered setae; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 576 View Figs 576–579 ) with strong irregular carinae mixed with strong reticulation, callus with two setae; petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part; gaster ( Fig. 576 View Figs 576–579 ) 1.8× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt1 with longitudinal short carinae, tergites with weak reticulation.

Female holotype: length of body 2.4mm (paratypes 1.9–2.7mm).

Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel brown, flagellum dark brown. Head with frons golden-green, antennal scrobes black with metallic tinges and clypeus dark brown; vertex metallic bluish-green. Mesosoma golden-red. Legs with fore coxa black with metallic green tinges and apex yellowish-brown, mid coxa dark brown with apex yellowish-brown, hind coxa golden-red with anterior part and apex yellowish-brown; trochanters, femora, tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown, T4 pale brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt1 golden-red, Gt2-5 metallic purple medially and golden laterally, Gt6-7 black with golden tinges; gonoplac black.

Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2. Face below level of toruli with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons rugose, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with weak reticulation outside ocellar triangle, with wrinkled sculpture inside ocellar triangle; with a carina between posterior ocelli in posterior part. Occipital margin carinate.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation and isodiametric meshes, midlobe with parts close to notauli rugose, with median groove indicated but very weak; midlobe with 16 setae scattered over rugose parts. Mesoscutellum with median part with very weak reticulation and shiny, lateral parts rugose with four scattered setae; with outer margin of submedian grooves absent, grooves curved and diverging slightly towards posterior part. Dorsellum with strong reticulation, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that expands anteriorly and posteriorly; with strong irregular carinae mixed with 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 open below; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt1 with longitudinal short carinae; tergites with rather weak reticulation.
