Metafemur markedly robust, with two prominent and five medium-sized teeth.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Holotype. • ♂, length of body about 3.25 mm (excluding antennae). Forewing length about 1.78 mm.</p><p>Head. Antenna filiform, elongate, composed of at least 19 flagellomeres; first flagellomere elongated and robust, second flagellomere comparatively short. Head broadly subcircular; frons coarsely obliquely to transversely rugose near anterior coronal tooth; vertex with seven distinct tubercles, transversely carinate posterior to the anterior coronal teeth, carinae not extending to the occipital carina. Occipital carina obsolete; temple moderately expanded posterior to compound eye.</p><p>Mesosoma. Pronotum short and robust, lacking distinct pronotal fold; neck, medial and posterior region of pronotum aligned in profile. Pronotum and mesonotum densely foveate; mesopleuron laterally with oblique transverse rugosity and ventrally with large foveae.</p><p>Wings. Forewing: vein 1 - M 0.5 × as long as 1 - Rs and slightly curved, 1.5 × as long as vein m-cu; vein 2 - Rs 3.4 × as long as vein r-rs; vein r-rs ends 0.3 × length of pterostigma; vein A incomplete, reaching only reach at 1 cu-a; vein Rs + M and 1 Cu parallel; vein 2 Rs + M almost absent, with no connection between veins 2 - Rs and the distal segment of M. Hindwing with vein Cu-a and vein M + Cu lacking.</p><p>Legs. Fore and mid legs with their femora and tibiae flattened and expanded. Metacoxa robust, spindle-shaped, ventrally with two rows of tubercles; metafemur coriaceous, extremely swollen medially, nearly oval in profile. Metafemur with two large and five medium-sized teeth (two intercalated between the large teeth, three discal to the apical large teeth); metatibia 1.2 × as long as metafemur, with basal narrow portion 0.9 × as long as apical broadened part; metatarsus with five tarsomeres; basitarsus 4.3 × as long as wide.</p><p>Metasoma. Metasoma with eight segments. First tergum and sternum not fused laterally, Tergite I rather robust, about 0.9 × as long as tergite II.</p><p>Female.
