Description
Female: Length of body 22 mm, of fore wing 19 mm, of ovipositor 13 mm.
Antennae with 123 flagellomeres, terminal flagellomere 3.0 times longer than wide. Height of clypeus:inter-tentorial distance:tentorio-ocular distance51.0:4.1:2.6. Width of face:width of head:height of eye51.1:2.1:1.0. Height of face:width of face51.0:1.9. Face punctulate, clypeus rugulose to rugose. Frons depressed, smooth, with medial longitudal groove. POL:transverse diameter of posterior ocellus:shortest distance between posterior ocellus and eye51.0:1.3:3.6. Length of eye in dorsal view:distance of occiput and posterior margin of eye52.1:1.0.
Mesosoma approximately 1.4 times longer than maximally deep.
Fore wing: length of veins r:3-SR:SR151.0:2.7:3.0. Length of veins 2-SR:3-SR:rm51.0:2.3:1.2. Length of veins m-cu:2-M51.0:2.9. Length of veins 1-CU1:2- CU151.0:4.6. Shape of vein 1-SR+M straight, but angled close vein 1-M. Swelling in vein 3-CU1 1.5 times thicker than the other part of the vein.
Legs: Length of fore femur:tibia:tarsus53.0:2.7:1.0. Fore basitarsus 3.3 times longer than deep. Length of hind femur:tibia:tarsus53.2:4.3:1.0. Hind basitarsus 3.3 times longer than deep.
First metasomal tergite 1.4 times longer than wide; raised median area with medial longitudinal groove and posterior area strongly striated. Second tergite 2.0 times wider than long; median area striated, without raised area. Third tergite 2.3 times wider than long; with strigated transverse furrows on anterior and subposterior margins, raised median area longitudinally striated. Antero-lateral areas raised and smooth. Tergite four similar but without conspicuous antero-lateral areas, and sculpture striated to reticulate. Tergite five smooth with strigated transverse furrow on anterior and posterior margins, tergites six to eight smooth.
Orange-brown or yellow except for the following which are black: head excluding labrum, apex of mandibles, antennae, middle telotarsi (not always entirely black), apical 5/ 6 of hind tibia, hind tarsi, ovipositor sheaths. Wings evenly darkened apically from veins 1- M and cu-a, with two hyaline zones in fore wing below pterostigma and around vein r-m. Apical third of pterostigma darkened. Hind wing darkened postero-apically. The size and darkness of hyaline areas varies in both wings, but the pattern is similar.
