Head. Mandible ( Fig. 56 View FIGURES 55–59 ) without distinct medial transverse groove and preapical denticle, atmost with obsolete intermittent impressed line; clypeus ( Fig. 56 View FIGURES 55–59 ) laterally with coarse and dense punctures, medially sparser, apex medially emarginated in middle; W: OW: L: IOD=10: 5.1: 5.1: 6; OOD: POD: Od=10: 9: 7; AOD: WAS: IAD: CL: CAW=5: 4.7: 2.1: 10: 7.1; lower frons ( Fig. 56 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with dense punctures, upper frons with sparser punctures; vertex ( Fig. 57 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with smaller and sparser punctures than upper frons, interspaces coriaceous.
Mesosoma . Pronotal anterior carina complete, anterior half of pronotum with moderate punctures, posterior half smooth; pronotum latero-ventrally ( Fig. 58 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with distinct groove in middle, area above groove smooth, area below groove with a few oblique striae; mesoscutum with sparse punctures, punctures gradually denser from anterior to posterior area; mesopleuron ( Fig. 58 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with small and sparse punctures; mesoscutellum and metanotum ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with sparse punctures; horizontal area of propodeal dorsal face ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with irregularly transverse striae, oblique area impunctate and without submarginal carina, posteriorly with short longitudinal striae connecting transverse carina; propodeal areola ( Fig. 59 View FIGURES 55–59 ) rectangular, APWL =2.7: 2.6: 4.7, medial longitudinal carina extending posterior margin of areola; lateral surface of propodeum dorsally ( Fig. 58 View FIGURES 55–59 ) with sparse long oblique wrinkles, ventrally smooth; posterior surface of propodeum with coarse and dense punctures, without short medial longitudinal carina; tegula atmost slightly longer than middle width, posterior margin without transverse impressed line; apex of marginal cell of forewing ( Fig. 55 View FIGURES 55–59 ) distinctly exceeding second submarginal cell.
Metasoma.
