Fore wing length 3.5–5.0 mm. Antenna in females with 21–22 flagellomeres, with ventral area of median to apical flagellomeres with conspicuous areas bearing a short velvety pile and lacking multiporous plate sensilla; in males with 21–23 flagellomeres, without tyloids. Face mainly smooth and shining, impunctate, with some irregular sculpture centrally and along inner orbits. Mesoscutum smooth and shining, weakly and irregularly punctate, more densely punctate centrally. Mesopleuron entirely smooth and shining, impunctate. Hind coxa with outer hind surface mostly smooth and shining, without any sculpture apart from around seta roots. Propodeum with a full set of carinae enclosing basal, lateral and petiolar areas, the areas with rugose to coriaceous sculpture. Metasoma evenly tapered towards apex, first tergite 1.7–2.1 times longer than wide in females, 1.8–2.2 in males. Colouration of females. Antenna brown or orange, paler below. Head and mesosoma black, face usually with a yellow central face patch, clypeus black, yellow on mouthparts, hind corner of pronotum, tegula, subtegular ridge, sometimes a small shoulder mark, upper mesepimeron; scutellum black. Legs orange, fore and mid coxae yellow or orange, hind coxa orange or black with a yellow apex, trochanters yellow, mid and hind trochanters sometimes black-marked; femora orange, sometimes dark ventro-basally; hind tibia and tarsus orange to brown.
