( Figs. 7–12 View FIGURES 7 – 12 )
Diagnosis. Mandible with three sharpened apical teeth; frons with frontal carina; ocelli large; malar groove present and not touching eye; scutellar groove narrow; propodeal disc with nine carinae, median and second pair of discal carina complete and others incomplete, sublateral carina absent, lateral carina present and conspicuous; mesopleuron with mesopleural fovea closed and posterior fovea opened; trochanters large.
Description. Holotype ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 7 – 12 ). Female. Body 1.55 mm. LFW 1.05 mm.
Colors. Head dark castaneous nearly black; scape and pedicel light castaneous; flagellum and mandible castaneous; palpi light castaneous; mesosoma dark castaneous nearly black; tegula light castaneous; wings clear hyaline; wing venation light castaneous; fore coxa dark castaneous nearly black; mid coxa and hind coxa dark castaneous; trochanters light castaneous; femora castaneous; tibiae light castaneous; tarsi light castaneous; metasoma dark castaneous nearly black with apex dark castaneous.
Head ( Fig. 8–9 View FIGURES 7 – 12 ). Mandible with three sharpened apical tooth. Clypeus with projected and wide median lobe with apical margin rounded, lateral lobe absent, median clypeal carina arched and fused with median lobe. Distance inter-torular more than torulus diameter. Antenna with 12 segments, with insertion higher than clypeal carina and with sub-erect pubescence; scape straight, with same diameter around your entire extension; pedicel longer than wide; flagellomeres about as long as wide, except for last one which is about 2.0x as long as wide. Eye oval, most placed on dorsal half of head in lateral view, sparsely setose. Frons coriaceous, hairy and with frontal carina present. First four antennal segments in ratio of about 25:10:5:5. WH 1.13x LH. WF 1.0x HE. WF 0.54x WH. OOL 1.57x WOT. VOL 0.1x HE. Distance of posterior ocellus to vertex crest 0.25x DAO. Frontal angle of ocellar triangle right; ocellus large; ocellar triangle compact (distance between inner edge of posterior ocelli 1.5x DAO). Temple divergent anterad. Vertex convex. Corner rounded. Malar space with longitudinal groove incomplete, not touching eye margin. Occipital carina absent. Gena coriaceous, completely separated from each other by median carina. Hypostomal carina forming an acute angle. Palpal formula 4:1; segments with flattened cross section, widened distally, apices of segments with some short setae.
Mesosoma ( Fig. 10–11 View FIGURES 7 – 12 ). Pronotal disc 0.55x as long as wide, coriaceous, trapezoidal and with side slightly concave; anterior slope of pronotal disc inclined in profile. Mesoscutum coriaceous; notaulus incomplete, parallel and weakly; parapsidal furrow present, incomplete and parallel; scutellum coriaceous and touching propodeal disc; scutellar groove narrow. Propodeal disc 1.0x as long as wide, areolate at 3/4 of disc, with seven carinae; median carina complete; inner discal carinae incomplete; second pair of discal carina complete; outer discal carina incomplete; fourth pair of discal carina incomplete; sublateral carina absent; lateral carina present and conspicuous; posterior carina complete; spiracle circular, placed above lateral carina anteriorly. Declivity of propodeum weakly areolate; without median carina. Lateral surface of propodeum weakly areolate. Mesopleuron with anterior fovea absent; mesopleural fovea closed; central pit strong; lower fovea absent; posterior fovea opened; episternal furrow with inner margin striate. Propleuron rectangular in ventral view. Prosternum small. Pleurosternum separated from each other by narrow groove.
Wings ( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 7 – 12 ). Forewing elongate, 2.6x long as its maximum width, dorsal face setose, margin densely fringed except medially, with three closed cells; costal cell very narrow and longitudinally folded, not visible in full dorsal view; costal vein as narrow as subcostal vein; median cell almost triangular; submedian cell almost rectangular; median cell 1.2x as long as submedian cell; prostigma and pterostigma not separated each other; radial vein slightly curved forward. Hind wing with costal vein short, dorsal face setose, lower margin densely fringed; with three hamuli, proximal hamuli separated from than others.
Legs. Femora dilated; trochanters clearly strong; spur of fore tibia strong; tarsal formula 5:5:5; tarsi elongate; tarsal claw simple and arched, apex sharp.
Metasoma. Metasoma 2.0x longer than wide, not petiolate, first and second tergites with pair of conspicuous lateral spiracles; tergite II longer than others; segments III–VI with few setae at posterior margin.
