Female.
Body size: 3.0 mm. Color: body medium to dark brown, apical metasomal terga often lighter brown than anterior terga, rarely all terga lighter brown than mesosoma; scape light brown or yellow, usually with lateral longitudinal brown stripe, rarely stripe weak or absent, flagellum entirely brown; wing veins brown, stigma yellow; legs yellow. Head: vertex granulate; frons granulate; face granulate; temple in dorsal view broad but not bulging behind eye, width greater than 1/2 eye height; malar space greater than 1/4 eye height; ocell-ocular distance 2.5 times diameter of lateral ocellus; 21-25 flagellomeres. Mesosoma: mesoscutal lobes granulate and shining, rarely partially smooth; notauli scrobiculate, meeting at scutellum in triangular rugose area, often with median longitudinal rugose groove extending anteriorly on median mesoscutal lobe; scutellum weakly granulate, often smooth; prescutellar furrow with 3 cross; mesopleuron granulate; precoxal sulcus scrobiculate, shorter than mesopleuron; venter granulate; propodeum with basal median areas small and not margined, granulate, basal median carina absent, areola not distinct, areolar area areolate-rugose, lateral areas entirely rugose. Wings: fore wing vein r slightly shorter or equal to vein 3RSa, vein 1cu-a beyond vein 1M; hind wing vein SC+R present, vein M+CU shorter than vein 1M. Metasoma: first tergum longitudinally costate laterally, rugose medially, length slightly less than apical width; second tergum longitudinally costate-rugose; anterior transverse groove present, straight; posterior transverse groove present but usually weakly indicated; third tergum costate basally, smooth apically; terga 4-7 smooth; ovipositor equal to half length of metasoma.
