Description
Female: Length of body 12 mm, of fore wing 13 mm, of ovipositor 13 mm.
Antenna with 53 flagellomeres (broken). Height of clypeus:inter-tentorial distance:tentorio-ocular distance51.0:3.8:3.0. Width of face:width of head:height of eye51.1:2.0:1.0. Height of face:width of face51.0:1.7. Sculpture on face punctate with punctulation, on clypeus pustulate. Frons weakly depressed, smooth, with medial longitudal groove. POL:transverse diameter of posterior ocellus:shortest distance between posterior ocellus and eye51.4:1.0:3.4. Length of eye in dorsal view:distance of occiput and posterior margin of eye52.1:1.0.
Mesosoma approximately 1.6 times longer than maximally deep.
Fore wing: length of veins r:3-SR:SR151.0:2.2:3.5. Length of veins 2-SR:3-SR:r-m5 1.0:1.8:1.1. Length of veins m-cu:2-M51.0:3.3. Length of veins 1-CU1:2-CU151.0:5.4. Shape of vein 1-SR+M weakly unevenly curvy near 1-M. Swelling in vein 3-CU1 1.4 times thicker than the other part of the vein.
Legs: Length of fore femur:tibia:tarsus52.1:2.3:1.0. Fore basitarsus 5.0 times longer than deep. Length of hind femur:tibia:tarsus51.9:2.7:1.0. Hind basitarsus 3.7 times longer than deep.
First metasomal tergite 1.4 times longer than wide; raised median smooth, anteriorly depressed and posteriorly strigated. Second tergite 2.1 times wider than long; raised median area strigated, antero-medial triangular area raised and smooth. Third tergite 2.3 times wider than long; with strigated transverse furrows on anterior and subposterior margins, raised median area longitudinally strigose, with raised lump-like area in the middle. Antero-lateral areas raised and smooth. Tergites four and five also with strigated furrows on anterior and subposterior margins. In tergite four raised median area weakly strigated, in tergite five smooth. Tergites six to eight smooth.
Orange-brown except for the following which are black: area around stemmaticum, apex of mandibles, ovipositor sheets. Antennae dark brown. Wings darkened, with a hyaline zones in fore wing below pterostigma. Apical third of pterostigma darkened. Hind wing darkened with hyaline area in the base of marginal cells.
