Diagnosis (female). Antenna with a constriction between C1 and C2 ( Fig. 757 View Figs 751–759 ); genal carina present; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 316 View Figs 316–319 ) with median part with weak reticulation and a ±complete weak median groove, meshes elongate, submedian grooves distinct and diverging towards posterior part; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 316 View Figs 316–319 ) short with strong reticulation, callus with three setae; petiole very short, transverse; gaster ( Fig. 316 View Figs 316–319 ) elongate, 2.3× as long as wide with strong reticulation, medio-basal Gt1 with a sharp edge shaped like an inverted U.
