Description of Female. Fully winged; length 4.2–4.6 mm. Head black, except mandible testaceous; antenna testaceous, except segments 6–10 brown; mesosoma and metasoma black; legs testaceous, except procoxa proximally black, metacoxa almost completely black, club of metafemus brown. Antenna short, clavate, with segment 1 almost twice as long as 4; antennal segments in following proportions: 16:7:10:7:7:7.5:7.5:7.5:7.5:9. Head shiny, completely strongly reticulate rugose; frontal line present; occipital carina complete; POL = 7; OL = 5; OOL = 5; OPL = 5; TL = 4; greatest breadth of posterior ocelli shorter than OPL (3:5); temple present. Pronotum rugose, with smooth and shiny stripe near posterior margin; posterior surface of pronotum shorter than scutum (8:20); pronotal tubercle reaching tegula. Scutum shiny, smooth, punctate, unsculptured among punctures. Notauli incomplete, reaching approximately 0.3 length of scutum. Scutellum shiny, smooth, punctate or unsculptured. Metanotum shiny, smooth, unsculptured. Propodeum reticulate rugose, with strong transverse keel between dorsal and posterior surface; posterior surface with two longitudinal keels and median area strongly rugose and with numerous transverse striae. In female from Nepal posterior surface of propodeum without longitudinal keels. Fore wing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; distal part of stigmal vein shorter than proximal part. Segment 1 of protarsus about three times as long as segment 4; segment 4 of protarsus produced into hook. Enlarged claw (Plate 42A) with a proximal prominence bearing one long bristle. Segment 5 of protarsus (Plate 42A) with about four bristles; distal apex with about six lamellae. Tibial spurs 1/1/2.
Description of Male. Fully winged; length 2.5–3.0 mm. Head black, except mandible testaceous; antenna brown; mesosoma and metasoma black; legs brown, except tarsi and tibiae testaceous. Antenna filiform; antennal segments in following proportions: 13:7:7:7:8:8:8:8.5:8:10. Head shiny, almost completely reticulate rugose, usually with smooth area in front of anterior ocellus; frontal line complete; POL = 9; OL = 4; OOL = 7; OPL = 5.5; TL = 5; occipital carina complete. Scutum shiny, smooth, finely punctate, unsculptured among punctures. In specimen from Japan, Mt. Hiko, scutum very strongly punctate. Notauli incomplete, reaching approximately 0.3 length of scutum. Scutellum and metanotum shiny, smooth, finely punctate, unsculptured among punctures. Propodeum reticulate rugose, with strong transverse keel between dorsal and posterior surface; posterior surface with two longitudinal keels and median area as rugose as lateral areas. Fore wing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; distal part of stigmal vein shorter than proximal part (3:9). Paramere (Plate 42B) without distal inner pointed process. Tibial spurs 1/1/2.
