Fully winged; body length 1.6–3.0 mm. Head black or brown, except mandible testaceous; antenna testaceous, except antennomeres 3–10 darkened; prothorax testaceous; mesoscutum black, except notauli and medi- an region between notauli testaceous; rest of mesosoma black; metasoma brown; legs testaceous. In specimens from Kenya , 3.47908°S 38.34162°E , mesosoma black, except pronotum brown. Occasionally mesosoma brown.Antenna filiform; antennomeres in following proportions: 6:6:9:12:11:12:11:10:8:10. Head dull, granulate and reticulate rugose; frontal line absent; occipital carina complete; POL = 6; OL = 2; OOL = 6; OPL = 1; TL = 4. Mesoscutum dull, granulate and slightly reticulate rugose. Notauli complete, posteriorly separated; minimum distance between notauli as long as POL, longer than greatest breadth of lateral ocelli (5:4), longer than breadth of each lateral region of mesoscutum measured at posterior margin of mesoscutum ( Fig. 159F ). Mesoscutellum and metanotum shiny, unsculptured (occasionally punctate, unsculptured among punctures). Metapectal-propodeal disc dull, reticulate rugose, without transverse keels; propodeal declivity reticulate rugose without longitudinal keels. Forewing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; distal part of 2r-rs&Rs vein longer than proximal part. Inner side of paramere ( Fig. 159E ) without mosaic pattern. Tibial spurs 1/1/2. . Unknown.

Unknown. Distribution . Kenya . Remarks . The tentatively attributed to Pseudodryinus townesi by Olmi (1984) cannot be a Pseudodryinus , because the minimum distance between notauli is longer than the greatest breadth of the lateral ocelli. For this reason, it is now associated with Thaumatodryinus sokokensis . However, it may be the opposite sex of one of the other African species known only on the basis of specimens.
