(Figs 1-2, 7-15, 19-24, 29, 31)</p><p>D i a g n o s i s: The female can be recognized by the following character combination: Mesosoma short, ratio of mesosomal length to width &lt;1.4; base of propodeum well below the level of the scutellum (Fig. 29); stipes on the ventral margin with a row of long, waved, yellowish hairs (Fig. 31); head about as wide as long (Fig. 1); clypeus slightly wider than long, medially densely punctate (i &lt;d), ventral margin triangular or curved and irregularly notched (Fig. 2); T6 very finely and densely punctate, almost matt (Fig. 12).</p><p>The male can be recognized by the following character combination: F1–F4 expanded laterally (Fig. 13); basal zone of propodeum sloping posteriorly and well below the level of the scutellum (Fig. 29); S5 with extent and shape of erect tuft of bristles as shown in Fig. 14; genitalia as in Fig. 15. As already described by PETERS (1970) for A. prima, the males of both species are characterised by an unusually large variability in size, sculpturing and pubescence (extent, colour). They look very similar, so the most reliable features to distinguish them are the extent and outline of the erect bristle tuft on S5 (Figs 14, 17) and the shape of the genitalia (Figs 15, 18).</p><p>D e s c r i p t i o n</p><p>F e m a l e: Body-length: 6.3-7.0 mm (Habitus: Figs 7-8).

Mesosoma short, ratio of mesosomal length to width &lt;1.4 (Tab. 1), base of propodeum well below the level of the scutellum (Fig. 7); scutum as in Fig. 9; scutellum slightly convex (Fig. 10); metanotum and basal zone of propodeum sloping in lateral view, midline length of metanotum in dorsal view shorter than length of basal zone of propodeum (Fig. 10); surface of basal zone sculptured as in Fig. 10, without carina posteriorly. Metasoma as in Fig. 11; T6 roundly emarginate apically, with broad translucent apical lip projecting at strong angle to surface of tergum (Fig. 12).</p><p>Integument smooth and shiny between punctures (Figs 1, 9-12); clypeus medially densely punctate (i &lt;d) (Fig. 2), on scutum moderate (i = 0.5-1d) (Fig. 9), on metasomal terga as in Fig. 11. Body black except flagellomeres ventrally, part of mandible and apical tarsal segments dark brown. Wings hyaline yellowish-brown; veins, stigma, prestigma dark brown. Pubescence mostly sparse, long and erect, on vertex and dorsal side of mesosoma light brown, otherwise white to yellowish-white (Figs 7-10); white, dense, appressed hair obscuring surface on paraocular area and apical patches or bands on T1-T3 (Fig. 11); scopa white.</p><p>M a l e: Body-length: 6.8-7.5 mm (Habitus: Fig. 19).
