(Figs 328, 329, 759)
Diagnosis (female). Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2 (Fig. 759); genal carina present; mesoscutellum (Fig. 328) with submedian grooves with outer margin indistinct, ±parallel and wide apart, median part with weak reticulation and shiny, meshes elongate, lateral parts rugose; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum (Fig. 328) with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation, callus with three setae; petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part; gaster (Fig. 328) ovate, 1.8× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt1 without carinae or edges, tergites with strong reticulation.
Female holotype: length of body 2.4mm.
Scape yellowish-brown with dorsal edge dark brown, pedicel and flagellum dark brown. Head with frons below level of eyes and vertex golden-green, clypeus black, above level of eyes metallic bluish-green, antennal scrobes black. Mesosoma golden-green. Legs with coxae metallic bluish-green; trochanters pale brown, femora black with metallic bluish-green tinges and with apex yellowish-brown; tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown, T4 brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt 1 golden-green, Gt 2-3 metallic bluish-green with posterior margin metallic purple, Gt 4 metallic purple on median part and metallic bluish-green on sides, Gt5-7 metallic bluish-green; gonoplac dark brown.
Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2; spicule distinct. Face below level of toruli with weak reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons rugose, scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex outside ocellar triangle with a mix of strong and weak reticulation, with transverse carinae inside ocellar triangle; with a carina between posterior ocelli in posterior part, with a strong sulcus from eye margin to posterior ocelli. Occipital margin carinate.
Mesoscutum with strong reticulation and isodiametric meshes on sidelobes, midlobe with strong reticulation and elongate meshes on median part, rugose on parts close to notauli, with a median groove in posterior half, with ten setae on rugose parts. Mesoscutellum with median part with weak reticulation and shiny, meshes elongate, with a median groove in anterior half; submedian grooves with outer margin predominantly indistinct, distinct only in posterior one-fifth, lateral parts rugose with ten scattered setae. Dorsellum with weak reticulation, with median carina. Propodeum with a wide median carina that expands in posterior part; 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 5&6 setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open towards base of wing; costal setal row unbroken.
Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster ovate; medio-basal Gt 1 without carinae or edges; tergites with strong small-meshed reticulation.
