Diagnosis

Head directed ventrally, such that the mandibles are nearly touching the front coxae ( Figs 5 View Figs 5–10 and 15 View Figs 13–16 ). Antenna with 10 flagellomeres, including 6 funiculars and 3 clavomeres ( Figs 8 View Figs 5–10 and 13 View Figs 13–16 ). Clava usually symmetrical (Bouček 1988), but asymmetrical in Exolabrum n.gen. ( Fig. 8 View Figs 5–10 ). Toruli below center of face ( Figs 1 View Figs 1–4 , 6 View Figs 5–10 , 13 View Figs 13–16 ). Clypeus short, broad, convex, exposing labrum ( Figs 1 View Figs 1–4 , 6 View Figs 5–10 , 13 View Figs 13–16 ). Mandibles with 2 teeth. Head with postgenal lamina flanking a separated, sunken, subforaminal bridge ( Fig. 7 View Figs 5–10 ). Pronotum convex and relatively long, without distinct collar ( Figs 9 View Figs 5–10 and 14 View Figs 13–16 ). Notauli complete. Frenum indistinct, very short when laterally indicated; mesoscutellum posteriorly carinate ( Figs 2 View Figs 1–4 , 9 View Figs 5–10 , 14 View Figs 13–16 ). Fore wing with marginal vein longer than postmarginal and stigmal veins ( Figs 5 View Figs 5–10 and 16 View Figs 13–16 ); basal cell setose; speculum absent although fore wing sometimes with a small bare area immediately apical to basal fold. All legs with five tarsomeres; protibial spur curved, apically cleft; first protarsomere with oblique basitarsal comb that crosses the basitarsal notch ( Fig. 4 View Figs 1–4 ). Metascutellum short, concealed under mesoscutellar apex ( Fig. 10 View Figs 5–10 ). Gaster convex.
