Remarks

The description of this species was made from at least one female. The type specimen agrees broadly with the description; there are a number of errors in the description, in particular Cameron’s erroneous observation of a non-existent basal cell in the fore wing, which may be explained by the fact that the venter, metapleura, propodeum, petiole and wings are all covered with glue and the wings are folded together, obscuring part of the body. Since the errors of observation relate to the particular condition of this specimen it is considered that Cameron based his description only on this specimen; hence it is a holotype by monotypy. The holotype is mounted on a card and is entire.
