Diagnosis. This species differs from other species by having the frons densely punctate, with the interspaces alutaceous and weakly polished ( Fig. 7A View FIGURE 7 ); the gena in dorsal view not strongly receding ( Fig. 7B View FIGURE 7 ) in the female; and the pterostigma as wide as or slightly wider than SMC2 ( Fig. 8A View FIGURE 8 ); the apical margin of the clypeus slightly emarginate medially; the hind tarsal claw edentate or with minute tooth preapically, which is much weaker than the apex of the main shaft; and metasomal tergum I parallel-sided basally ( Fig. 8B View FIGURE 8 ) in the male.

Redescription. (Measurements of the holotype are given in parentheses.) FEMALE. Length: body 3.9–5.8 (4.3) mm; fore wing 3.8–5.1 (4.0) mm. Body black and polished ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ). Mandible dark brown on basal half, yellowish-brown on apical half, reddish-brown at apex. Following more or less ferruginous: antenna (brighter below than above), lateral margin of pronotum, tegula, lateral and posterior margins of metasomal terga and posterior margins of metasomal sterna. Palpi light brown. Legs mostly bright- to dark-brown; fore tibia and all tarsi more or less bright- to yellowish-brown, except for dark brown tarsomeres V. Wings hyaline; fore wing distinctly bifasciate ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ).

Vertex and mesonotum with a few fine brown setae; clypeus preapically and mandible with long stout bristles arising from rather large pores; metasomal sterna and tergum V with sparse brown bristles; tergum VI with long dense brown bristles.

Frons ( Fig. 7A View FIGURE 7 ), vertex ( Fig. 7B View FIGURE 7 ) and dorsum of mesoscutum ( Fig. 7E View FIGURE 7 ) densely punctate and alutaceous. Clypeus strongly alutaceous with several large, setiferous pores preapically. Pronotum alutaceous with minute dense setiferous pores.

Vertex with oblique shallow impressed line from posterior end of lateral ocellus to eye. Clypeus as broad as LID, its width 2.4–2.7 (2.6) × length, convex medially; apicolateral corner subangulate; apical rim depressed and narrowed medially, roundly ridged just anteriorly to it; anterior margin almost straight medially. Malar space very short and linear. Flagellomere I length 1.3–1.4 (1.3) × flagellomere II length, 4.6–5.3 (5.0) × its width, 0.75–0.92 (0.82) × UID.

Pronotum with anterior declivity barely differentiated from dorsum; shoulder weakly bulging ( Fig. 7E View FIGURE 7 ); posterior margin with obtuse median angulation.

Propodeum length 0.75–0.90 (0.82) × width, in profile evenly convex (declivity not differentiated from dorsum) ( Fig. 7C View FIGURE 7 ), usually with shallow median groove.

Mid tibia with a few minute spines laterally. Hind tibia devoid of spines laterally. Longer spur of hind tibia 0.44–0.49 (0.48) × hind tarsomere I length.

Exposed portion of SGP ( Fig. 8E View FIGURE 8 ) with fluke on side, that being directed posterolaterally, and with dense setae subapically and apically; apical margin triangularly produced. Genitalia ( Fig. 8F View FIGURE 8 ): paramere slightly extending beyond apex of parapenial lobe with long dense setae on outer face and apical half.
