The differences between  T. descensus sp. nov. and  T. phiaoacus sp. nov. were given in the key; this new species is close to  T. guangxinensis Wang, Chen &amp; He , from China, but differs from the latter by the following characters: 1) Propodeum smooth, with a complete median longitudinal carina; 2) Middle lobe of mesoscutum with sparse but discretely punctate, anterio-medially with a weak longitudinal ridge, lateral lobes of mesoscutum with discrete punctures (nearly smooth in  T. guangxinensis ); and 3) Third–fifth metasomal tergites with oblique posterolateral lobe like protuberances in lateral view (rounded postero-lateral lobe like protuberances in  T. guangxinensis ) </p>
