Head black, except mandible, clypeus and anterior third of frons (including region between antennal toruli) testaceous; ventral side of head black, except anterior half testaceous; antenna completely testaceous (holotype with antennomeres 1–3 testaceous; remaining antennomeres missing; in specimen from South Africa, 32°14.990’S 24°55.962’E, antenna brown, except antennomeres 1–3 testaceous); mesosoma black; metasoma brown; legs testaceous, except clubs of femora and meso- and metacoxa partly brown. Antenna clavate; antennomeres in following proportions: 7:5:5:4.5:5:4:3.5:3.5:3.5:5. Head excavated, shiny, unsculptured, except temple and occiput granulate; frontal line complete; occipital carina shortly present behind and on sides of lateral ocelli; POL = 1; OL = 1; OOL = 7; greatest breadth of lateral ocelli longer than OL (1.5:1). Palpal formula 4/2. Pronotum bare, crossed by strong transverse impression, shiny, unsculptured, except few longitudinal striae on laterial regions. Mesoscutum dull, sculptured by few longitudinal striae, without lateral pointed apophyses. Mesoscutellum shiny, unsculptured, flat.
