( Figs 456, 457 View Figs 456–459 , 815 View Figs 808–817 )

Diagnosis (female). Antenna with distinct constriction between between C1 and C2 ( Fig. 815 View Figs 808–817 ); genal carina present; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 456 View Figs 456–459 ) with submedian grooves curved, outer margin missing, median part with very weak reticulation, lateral parts rugose; dorsellum with median carina; propodeum ( Fig. 456 View Figs 456–459 ) with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation, callus with four setae; gaster ( Fig. 456 View Figs 456–459 ) 2.4× as long as wide, medio-basal Gt 1 with longitudinal carinae laterally, tergites with strong reticulation.

Female holotype: length of body 2.5mm (paratypes 1.9–2.4mm).

Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel and flagellum dark brown to black. Head with frons metallic bluish-green with scrobes black with metallic tinges and clypeus dark brown; vertex black with metallic blue tinges. Mesoscutum black with golden-green tinges, mesoscutellum and propodeum golden-green. Legs with coxae yellowish-brown, fore coxa with very base and hind coxa with basal half dark brown; trochanters, femora, tibiae and tarsi yellowish-brown, T4 pale brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt 1 metallic bluish-green with posterior margin metallic purple, Gt2-5 metallic purple, Gt6-7 black; gonoplac black.

Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2. Face below level of toruli with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons rugose, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation outside ocellar triangle, with wrinkled sculpture inside ocellar triangle; with a carina between posterior ocelli in posterior part.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation and isodiametric meshes on sidelobes, midlobe with rather strong reticulation and elongate meshes on median part, rugose on parts close to notauli, with an indistinct but complete median groove, with 18 setae on rugose parts. Mesoscutellum with submedian grooves with outer margin missing, median part with very weak reticulation, lateral parts rugose with 16 scattered setae. Dorsellum with weak sculpture, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that is expanded posteriorly; with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation; callus with four setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation. Fore wing with six setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open below (apical seta absent); costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt 1 with longitudinal carinae laterally; tergites with strong reticulation.
