Diagnosis (female). Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2 (Fig. 835); genal carina present; mesoscutellum (Fig. 516) with median part with strong reticulation in anterior one-fifth, with weak reticulation in posterior part, lateral parts rugose, submedian grooves curved and diverging towards posterior part, outer margin absent; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum (Fig. 516) with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation, callus with three setae; petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part; gaster (Fig. 516) 2.1× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt1 with short longitudinal carinae laterally, Gt1 with weak reticulation and shiny, remaining tergites with strong reticulation.
Female holotype: length of body 3.2mm (paratype 3.1mm).
Scape yellowish-brown in basal half, dark brown in apical half, pedicel and flagellum black. Face below level of toruli golden-green with clypeus dark brown, frons metallic bluish-green with scrobes black with metallic tinges; vertex metallic bluish-green. Mesosoma golden-green. Legs with coxae metallic bluish-green; trochanters yellowish-brown; fore and mid femora with basal two-thirds black, hind femur with basal two-thirds metallic bluish-green, apical one-third yellowish-brown; tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown, T4 brown. Petiole black. Gaster metallic bluish-green, Gt2-5 with purple tinges dorsally; gonoplac brown.
Antenna with a distinct constriction between C1 and C2. Face below level of toruli with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons rugose, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation outside ocellar triangle, with wrinkled sculpture inside ocellar triangle; with a carina between posterior ocelli in posterior part.
Mesoscutum with strong reticulation and isodiametric meshes on sidelobes, midlobe with strong reticulation, meshes elongate on median part, rugose on parts close to notauli, with a complete median groove; midlobe with 20 setae scattered over rugose parts. Mesoscutellum with median part with strong reticulation in anterior one-fifth, with weak reticulation in posterior part, with an indistinct median groove in anterior half, lateral parts rugose with 16 scattered setae; submedian grooves curved and diverging towards posterior part, outer margin absent. Dorsellum with very weak sculpture and shiny, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that expands anterior and posteriorly; with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation; callus with three setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation. Fore wing with four setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open below and towards base of wing; costal setal row unbroken.
Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt1 with short longitudinal carinae laterally; Gt1 with weak reticulation and shiny, remaining tergites with strong reticulation; longest cercal seta broken off.
