Fusicornia bambeyi Risbec, 1950: 606 View in CoL (original description); Risbec, 1956: 264 (description).
Description. Female body length: 2.31–2.81 mm (n=20). Male body length: 2.39–2.74 mm (n=20).
Head: Vertex between posterior ocelli: rounded. Female OOL: less than or equal one ocellar diameter, or more than one ocellar diameter. Frontal sculpture: entirely and evenly sculptured. Sculpture of central frons: reticulate punctate. Setation of central frons: moderately setose throughout. Inner orbit in frontal view: more or less parallel. Upper gena in dorsal view of female: expanded, convex, therefore in lateral view compound eye separated from posterior margin by gena. Sculpture of gena behind lower half of eye: with reticulate to coriaceous microsculpture. Setation of gena: moderately setose. Antenna: Radicle color: yellow to orange brown. Color of female A1: yellow to orange-brown, dark brown to black. Color of female funicle (A3–A6): dark brown. Claval formula: 1-2-2-2-2-1. Claval color: dark brown to black.
Mesosoma: Pronotal cervical sulcus: absent. Mesoscutum sculpture: reticulate with superimposed punctures. Longitudinal sculpture in posterior half of mesoscutum: absent. Admedian line: present or absent. Mesoscutal humeral sulcus: foveolate. Notauli: absent. Mesoscutellum shape: rounded. Sculpture of mesoscutellum: almost entirely smooth, with broad smooth area medially, reticulate punctate laterally. Length of medial metascutellar spine: medial spine short to moderately long, distinctly shorter than distance between medial and lateral spines. Length of lateral metascutellar spine: moderately elongate, length distinctly greater than width. Sculpture of propodeal nucha: smooth to weakly sculptured. Sculpture of suprahumeral area of pronotum: puncticulate. Sculpture in lower pronotum: longitudinally striate. Netrion setation: sparsely setose to glabrous. Mesopleural carina: complete, present dorsally, interrupted or absent ventrally. Mesepimeral sulcus: abbreviated, complete or briefly interrupted, foveate above, appearing as fold ventrally. Area 2 on metapleuron: polygonal, setose, or linear, setose. Setation of area 4 of metapleuron: setose ventrally, glabrous. Setation in anteroventral metapleural triangle: absent. Setation of propodeum anterior to spiracle: sparsely setose (less than 10) or absent. Legs: Coxae color: all coxae brown to black, all coxae yellow, fore coxa brown, mid and hind coxa yellow.
Wings: Female fore wing maculation: hyaline or with slight infuscation below marginal vein, with distinct infuscation at level of marginal vein.
Metasoma: Length of T1: less than or equal to one times width. Horn on T1 of female: well developed, sculpture on horn very weak or absent, present as low elevation, sculpture on horn variable. Lateral setation of T1: sparsely to moderately setose (6–15/side). Medial sculpture on T3: smooth and shiny.
Diagnosis. Fusicornia bambeyi is most similar to F. paradisa and may be distinguished from it on the basis of the sculpture of scutellum and shape of the metanotal spines. The scutellum of F.bambeyi has a broad smooth area medially, and is reticulate punctate laterally; the lateral metanotal spine is moderately elongate, its length distinctly greater than its width and it is confluent with the medial spine ( Figs. 9, 27, 30, 33).

Comments. Some specimens show variability in coxal color, in which the fore coxae are dark, and the mid and hind coxae yellow: OSUC 148980, 148981, 162177, 162179, 206137, 208107. Because of the uniformity of the principal characters, the sculpture of scutellum, the configuration of the median and lateral metanotal spines, and the setation of areas 2 and 4 of metapleuron, these specimens are hypothesized to be conspecific with F. bambeyi .
