Diagnosis. Medioposterior band of scutellum mostly overlapping the medioanterior pit of metanotum (Figs 199F, 220F), pronotum with a distinct dorsal furrow (Figs 199C, I, 200H), petiole on T1 evenly narrowing distally, finely sculptured only laterally (Figs 199G, H, 200G), antenna longer than body, distal antennal flagellomere longer than penultimate, precoxal groove deep, smooth, and shiny (Figs 199A, I, 200A, H), fore wing with vein 1 cu-a curved, r vein curved (Fig. 200I), dorsal outer depression on hind coxa present (Figs 199A, J, 200A, J), inner margin of eyes diverging slightly at antennal sockets (Figs 199B, 200B), and lateral grooves delimiting the median area on T2 clearly defined and reaching the distal edge of T2 (Figs 199G, H, 200G). Coloration (Fig. 199 A–J). General body coloration black except scape proximally yellow-brown/reddish and distally brown; pedicel distally yellow-brown/reddish and proximally brown; first seven-eight proximal antennal flagellomeres completely yellow (the yellow coloration is darker on the first four antennal flagellomeres), remaining flagellomeres completely brown; tegulae yellow; labrum, mandible, propleuron distally, and dorsal furrow of pronotum yellow-brown/reddish; glossa, maxillary and labial palps pale yellow/ivory. Eyes and ocelli silver. Fore and middle legs dark yellow, except coxae and trochanters pale yellow/ivory; hind legs dark yellow except proximal half of coxae black, femora distally and tibiae brown, and tarsomeres dark yellow. Petiole on T1 with two colorations: proximal 1/4 yellow-brown/reddish and distal 3/4 brown, contours darkened and sublateral areas ivory/pale yellow; T2 with median and adjacent areas brown, and lateral ends ivory/pale yellow; T3 medially brown, proximally dark area coinciding with the width of dark area of median and adjacent areas on T2, but distally T3 narrowing, remaining area ivory/pale yellow; T4 and beyond completely brown; distally each tergum with a narrow ivory/pale yellow transparent band. In lateral view, T1-3 ivory/pale yellow; T4 and beyond brown. S1-5 ivory/yellow; hypopygium brown. Description. <b>Head</b> (Fig. 199 A–D). Head rounded with pubescence long and dense. Proximal three antennal flagellomeres longer than wide (0.25:0.08, 0.24:0.08, 0.24:0.08), distal antennal flagellomere longer than penultimate (0.14:0.06, 0.11:0.07), antenna longer than body (3.23, 2.48); antennal scrobes-frons shallow. Face flat or nearly so, with dense fine punctations, interspaces smooth and longitudinal median carina present. Frons smooth. Temple wide, punctate and interspaces wavy. Inner margin of eyes diverging slightly at antennal sockets; in lateral view, eye anteriorly convex and posteriorly straight. POL shorter than OOL (0.08, 0.12). Malar suture present. Median area between lateral ocelli slightly depressed. Vertex laterally pointed or nearly so and dorsally wide. <b>Mesosoma</b> (Fig. 199A, E, F, I). Mesosoma dorsoventrally convex. Mesoscutum proximally convex and distally flat, punctation distinct throughout, interspaces smooth. Scutellum triangular, apex sloped and fused with BS, scutellar punctation scattered throughout, in profile scutellum flat and on same plane as mesoscutum, phragma of the scutellum partially exposed; BS mostly overlapping the MPM; ATS demilune with complete undulate/reticulate carinae; dorsal ATS groove with semicircular/parallel carinae. Transscutal articulation with small and heterogeneous foveae, area just behind transscutal articulation nearly at the same level as mesoscutum (flat) and with same kind of sculpture as mesoscutum. Metanotum with BM upward; MPM semicircular and bisected by a median longitudinal carina; AFM with a small lobe and not as well delineated as PFM; PFM thick, smooth and with lateral ends rounded; ATM with undulate carinae throughout. Propodeum without median longitudinal carina, proximal half curved with medium-sized sculpture and distal half rugose; distal edge of propodeum with a flange at each side and without stubs; propodeal spiracle distally framed by a short concave carina; nucha surrounded by very short radiating carinae. Pronotum with a distinct dorsal furrow, dorsally with a well-defined smooth band; central area of pronotum and dorsal furrow smooth, but ventral furrow with short parallel carinae. Propleuron with fine rugae and dorsally without a carina. Metasternum convex. Contour of mesopleuron convex; precoxal groove deep, smooth and shiny; epicnemial ridge convex, teardrop-shaped. <b>Legs.</b> Ventral margin of fore telotarsus entire without seta, fore telotarsus proximally narrow and distally wide, and longer than fourth tarsomere (0.11, 0.07). Hind coxa with punctation only on ventral surface, dorsal outer depression present. Inner spur of hind tibia longer than outer spur (0.26, 0.20), entire surface of hind tibia with dense strong spines clearly differentiated by color and length. Hind telotarsus as equal in length as fourth tarsomere (0.12, 0.11). <b>Wings</b> (Fig. 200I). Fore wing with r vein slightly curved; 2RS vein straight; r and 2RS veins forming a weak, even curve at their junction and outer side of junction not forming a stub; 2M vein slightly curved/swollen; distally fore wing [where spectral veins are] with microtrichiae more densely concentrated than the rest of the wing; anal cell 1/3 proximally lacking microtrichiae; subbasal cell with a small smooth area, vein 2CUa absent and vein 2CUb spectral; vein 2 cu-a absent; vein 2-1A proximally tubular and distally spectral, although sometimes difficult to see; tubular vein 1 cu-a curved and complete, but junction with 1-1A vein spectral. Hind wing with vannal lobe very narrow, subdistally and subproximally straightened, and setae evenly scattered in the margin. <b>Metasoma</b> (Fig. 199A, G, H, J). Metasoma laterally compressed. Petiole on T1 finely sculptured only laterally, evenly narrowing distally (length 0.34, maximum width 0.17, minimum width 0.07) and with scattered pubescence concentrated in the first distal third. Lateral grooves delimiting the median area on T2 clearly defined and reaching the distal edge of T2 (length median area 0.14, length T2 0.14), edges of median area polished and lateral groo
