Antennal clava solid. Face below level of toruli with weak reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons with strong reticulation, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation outside ocellar triangle, with wrinkled sculpture inside ocellar triangle; with a carina between posterior ocelli in posterior part.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric, midlobe with elongate meshes posterio-medially and with a median groove in posterior half, with eight scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum rugose and with a median groove in anterior two-thirds; submedian grooves with outer margin indistinct, slightly curved, almost parallel; with five setae scattered over lateral parts. Dorsellum with strong sculpture, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that expands in posterior part; with strong reticulation; callus with four setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation. Fore wing with five setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum closed; costal setal row broken.
