Head: vertex smooth; frons smooth; face smooth; temple in dorsal view narrow, sloping behind eye, width equal to eye width; malar space greater than 1/4 eye height; ocell-ocular distance slightly greater than 2.5 times diameter of lateral ocellus; 20-25 flagellomeres. Mesosoma: mesoscutal lobes weakly granulate; notauli scrobiculate, meeting posteriorly in triangular costate area; scutellum smooth; prescutellar furrow with 3-5 cross carinae; mesopleuron weakly granulate; precoxal sulcus smooth weakly scrobiculate or smooth, shorter than mesopleuron; venter smooth; propodeum with basal median areas margined, granulate, basal median carina absent or very short, areola distinctly margined, areolar area rugose, lateral areas entirely rugose. Wings: fore wing vein r shorter than vein 3RSa, vein 1cu-a slightly beyond or interstitial with vein 1M; hind wing vein SC+R present, vein M+CU shorter than 1M. Metasoma: first tergum longitudinally costate, length greater than apical width; second tergum longitudinally costate; anterior transverse groove present, straight; posterior transverse groove present; third tergum costate basally, smooth apically; terga 4-7 smooth; ovipositor half as long as metasoma.
