Head, mesosoma (except lighter brown propleuron) and metasomal syntergite dark brown, T 1 light yellowish and posterior segments of metasoma lighter brown; mandibles and palpi pale yellowish; scape pedicel and proximal two flagellomeres pale yellow-brown, remaining flagellomeres shading gradually to very slightly darker brown at distal end of antenna; legs entirely pale yellow-brown; tegulae and pigmented portions of wing venation (including pterostigma) very pale yellow-brown; laterotergites of T 1 and T 2 whitish; entire venter of metasoma very pale except slightly darker anterior half of hypopygium; ovipositor sheaths pale yellow-brown. Morphology. Face rather smooth, convex to a weak ridge medially; antennae slightly shorter than body, slender, with apical flagellomeres about 2 × as long as broad; propleuron with smooth dorsal and ventral grooves joined together posteriorly by another smooth groove; mesoscutum with satiny reflections and sparsely but distinctly punctate except smoother posterior margin; notauli poorly defined but extending over anterior half; scutellum smooth, nearly flat and longer than broad; mesopleuron very faintly sculptured, with poorly-defined groove / depression centrally; metanotum mostly deeply sunken, with abortive cross-carinae and medial boss raised only over posterior half; propodeum weakly sculptured, with percurrent longitudinal medial carina crossed by distinct angled transverse carinae just past midlength; T 1 very narrow and elongate, abruptly broadening at posterior end to meet T 2; laterotergal region of T 1 strongly whitish, with central striation; T 2 and T 3 fused to form longitudinally sculptured elongate syntergite which broadens gradually to T 2 / T 3 flared and weakly grooved junction, parallel-sided over T 3; laterotergal regions of T 2 and T 3 whitish, with some regions of striation; T 4 evenly sclerotized but weakly pigmented and translucent; hypopygium evenly sclerotized to fairly sharp tip; ovipositor nearly straight; sheaths less than half as long as hind tibiae with setae over distal half. Male (Fig. 7 A – F). This is the only species of Fusimirax for which there are males known (five specimens). These tend to be significantly more lightly colored over much of the body, sometimes with relatively broader syntergites (lower elevation specimens). T 4 is also medially partially desclerotized, only in males. Variation. As described above for males.	en	Whitfield, James B., Fernandez-Triana, Jose L., Boudreault, Caroline (2025): Two new Neotropical genera of Miracinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) with unusual metasomal morphology.
