Scape yellow with a weakly longitudinal light brown stripe. Pedicel yellow with a weakly longitudinal light brown stripe. Antennae with the following color pattern from base to apex: honey yellow-brown-pale yellow-brown. Lateral mesoscutal lobes dark brown. Median mesoscutal lobe brown-dark brown. Venter of mesosoma dark brown. Pronotum brown to dark brown. Propodeum black or dark brown. First tergum brown-dark brown. Second tergum brown. Third tergum brown basomedially and apically with a weakly transversal honey stripe, or dark brown-brown. Fourth tergum brown basomedially and apically with a weakly transversal honey stripe, or brown to dark brown. Fifth tergum brown basomedially and apically with a weakly transversal honey stripe, or dark brown. Sixth tergum brown basomedially and apically with a weakly transversal honey stripe. Remaining terga brown except the last one, which is yellow, or honey except the last one, which is yellow. Fore and middle femur brown. Fore and middle tibia yellow. Hind coxa dark brown with pale yellow apically. Hind trochanter white. Hind trochantellus pale yellow-brown. Hind femur brown. Hind tibia brown, yellow apically. Hind tarsi yellow, or honey yellow.
