Epicnemial carina present laterally and ventrally, its dorsal end situated near anterior margin of mesopleuron. Speculum with large smooth area ( Fig. 20A View Fig ). Propodeum with all carinae except for anterior transverse carina ( Fig. 20C View Fig ). Fore wing length 6.2–7.4 (HT: 6.2) mm. Areolet absent. Fore wing vein 1cu-a postfurcal to vein M&RS ( Fig. 20A View Fig ). Nervellus slightly inclivous, intercepted posterior the middle. Tarsal claws simple. Hind femur 5.0–5.2 (HT: 5.2) × as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Ratio of length of hind first to fifth tarsomeres 4.0–4.1 (HT: 4.1): 2.0: 1.5–1.55 (HT: 1.5): 0.95–1.0 (HT: 1.0): 1.0–1.2 (HT: 1.2).

Metasoma matt. T I 1.5 × as long as maximum width, with latero-median longitudinal carina, its posterior end situated near midlength of segment. T II 0.65–0.9 (HT: 0.9) × as long as maximum width. Setae of subgenital plate directed backwards. Ovipositor sheath with short (shorter than half depth of ovipositor sheath) setae apically. Ovipositor sheath 0.25 × as long as hind tibia.

Colouration ( Figs. 20A–C View Fig ). Body (excluding wings and legs) black. Clypeus, malar space, mandible except for teeth, palpi, postero-dorsal and postero-ventral corners of pronotum, scutellum, postscutellum, tegula, and subtegular ridge yellow to whitish yellow. Mesoscutum, mesopleuron, and metapleuron red to reddish brown. Posterior margins of T II to T VII, lateral sides including laterotergites of T III to T VII, and metasomal sternites except for sclerites white. Collar partly tinged with yellow and reddish brown. Anterior part of mesoscutum more or less darkened. Wings hyaline. Veins and pterostigma brown to blackish brown except for yellow wing base. Fore and mid legs reddish brown to yellowish brown. Hind coxa, trochanter, and femur reddish brown except for coxa and trochanter partly tinged with yellow. Hind trochantellus, tibia except for base and apical part, and hind tibial spurs whitish yellow. Hind tibia except for base and apical part and hind tarsus blackish brown.

Male (n = 1). Similar to female. Body length 7.2 mm. Antenna with 37 flagellomeres. Hind femur 4.75 × as long as maximum depth in lateral view. T I 1.6 × as long as maximum width. A pair of longitudinal markings along frontal orbit, face, pronotum, propleuron, a pair of markings of antero-lateral part of mesoscutum, and longitudinal stripe of mesopleuron yellow ( Figs. 20D, E View Fig ). Base of hind tibia paler than female ( Fig. 20D View Fig ).

Distribution. Japan (Honshu).

Bionomics. Unknown.

Etymology. The specific name is from “ rufi -” (reddish) plus “ dorsalis ” (back). This species has red mesoscutum.

Remarks. This species resembles Ca. formosus ( Gravenhorst, 1829) in the body colouration and the short malar space but can be distinguished by the T I 1.5 × as long as maximum width (1.6–1.7 × in Ca. formosus ), the red mesopleuron (black in female of Ca. formosus ), and the black base of hind tibia (reddish in Ca. formosus ).
