( Figs 176, 177 View Figs 176–179 , 1038)

Diagnosis (female). Antenna with solid clava (Fig. 1038); with genal carina; mesoscutellum ( Fig. 176 View Figs 176–179 ) with strong reticulation, meshes elongate, submedian grooves indistinct but traceable; propodeum ( Fig. 176 View Figs 176–179 ) with median carina that splits in posterior part (Y-shaped carina); fore coxa with a sharp edge along posterior margin and hind coxa without carina along posterior margin; gaster ( Fig. 176 View Figs 176–179 ) 2.0× as long as wide, Gt 2 0.3× as long as Gt 4, medio-basal Gt 1 with a ±rectangular incision, Gt 1 with strong reticulation with posterior margin smooth.

Female holotype: length of body 2.1mm (paratypes 1.9–2.3mm).

Antenna dark brown. Frons metallic bluish-green, clypeus dark brown, antennal scrobes black; vertex metallic bluish-purple. Thoracic dorsum golden-green with blue tinges. Legs with coxae golden-green; trochanters dark brown; femora dark brown to black, with metallic tinges; fore tibia yellowish-brown, mid and hind tibiae pale brown; T1–3 yellowish-brown, T4 brown. Petiole black. Gaster with Gt 1,5,6 golden-green; Gt 2-4 metallic purple, Gt 7 black; gonoplac black.

Antenna with solid clava. Frons with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation.

Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without a median groove, with ten scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation, meshes elongate; submedian grooves indistinct but traceable, wide apart, slightly curved and diverging towards posterior part; anterior pair of setae in median part of mesoscutellum. Dorsellum with strong sculpture, hidden under mesoscutellum and not visible in dorsal view. Propodeum with a strong median carina that splits in posterior part, forming an inverted “Y”; callus with two setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation, fore coxa with a sharp edge along posterior margin, hind coxa without carina along posterior margin. Fore wing with 3–5 setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open below; costal setal row unbroken.

Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt 1 with a ±rectangular incision and with strong reticulation in anterior two-thirds, smooth in posterior one-third, remaining tergites with strong reticulation.
