Description. Female (n = 6). Body matt ( Figs. 37A, B, E, G); covered with setae; body length 6.3–8.7 mm.

Head 0.6–0.65 × as long as wide in dorsal view. Clypeus 2.0 × as wide as long; weakly convex in lateral view; punctate dorsally; smooth ventrally; lower margin weakly rounded in frontal view, sharp in lateral view. Face 0.45– 0.5 × as long as minimum width; matt; slightly convex medially; densely punctate. Anterior tentorial pit small. Frons weakly concave above antennal sockets; coriaceous on concavities weaker than dorsal part. POL 0.9–1.1 × as OD. OOL 1.05–1.1× as OD. Dorsal profile of gena straight in dorsal view; width abruptly narrowing posteriorly ( Fig. 37D). Occipital carina complete. Malar space 1.0–1.1 × as long as basal width of mandible. Mandible flat at base; lower tooth equal in length of upper tooth. Antenna with 27–28 flagellomeres; not flattened and tapped. FL I 3.65– 4.6 × as long as maximum depth in lateral view, 1.0–1.15 × as long as FL II.

Mesosoma. Pronotum rugulose ventrally. Epomia short; dorsal end situated slightly above collar. Notaulus sharp and short ( Fig. 37D); posterior end not reaching centre of mesoscutum. Scutellum densely punctate; weakly convex in lateral view. Mesopleuron largely irregularly rugulose; without conspicuous smooth area around speculum ( Fig. 37E). Epicnemial carina present laterally and ventrally. Sternaulus deep in entire length of mesopleuron. Metapleuron rugulose; juxtacoxal carina largely indistinct by rugae. Propodeum rugose to rugulose; with all carinae ( Fig. 37G); area superomedia defined, slightly longer than maximum width; apophysis strong; apex obtuse; spiracle elliptic. Fore wing length 5.8–7.0 mm. Areolet as long as maximum width; width steeply narrowing anteriorly; received vein 2m-cu at slightly beyond to middle ( Fig. 37F). Fore wing vein 1cu-a interstitial to or slightly antefurcal to vein M&RS ( Fig. 37F). Nervellus subvertical; intercepted near posterior end of vein. Hind femur reticulate coriaceous; 5.0–5.6 × as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Tarsal claws simple.

Metasoma. T I 2.5–2.6 × as long as maximum width; latero-median carina absent; dorso-lateral carina complete. T II 0.75–0.85 × as long as maximum width. Thyridium present; somewhat distant from (by more than length of thyridium) anterior margin of T II; flat to slightly depressed; ca. 2.0 × as wide as length. Ovipositor sheath 0.85–0.9 × as long as hind tibia, 1.4–1.65 × as long as T I. Ovipositor straight; apex sharp; apex of lower valve with teeth ( Fig. 79H).

Colouration ( Figs. 37A–G). Body (excluding wings) black to blackish-brown. Setae silver. Subapical part of mandible, clypeus, and posterior margins of each metasomal tergite tinged with reddish-brown to brown. Frons with pair of yellow marking along each orbit. Scutellum with yellow marking. FL VII to FL XI with white markings. Median part of collar, apex of propodeal apophysis, and apex of ovipositor sheath tinged with yellow to yellowish-brown. Bases and apices of femora and tibiae narrowly tinged with yellowish-brown. Tibial spurs of all legs yellowish-brown. Hind TS II to IV (base of TS II usually darkened) ivory to white. Membranous part of metasomal sternites yellow to yellowish-brown. Apex of metasoma white. Thyridium and ovipositor reddish-brown. Wings hyaline. Veins and pterostigma blackish-brown to brown except for yellowish-brown to yellow wing base.
