Redescription
FEMALE. Body and appendages mostly dark brown but legs (except distal tarsomeres) brown; antenna (
Fig. 84
) with scape longer than pedicel or any funicle segment; F1 slightly longer than pedicel and subequal in length to F2 and F4, F3 and F6 slightly shorter, F5 the shortest, and F6 the widest funicle segment; longitudinal sensilla only on F4 (1) and F6 (2), clava large, about as long as combined length of F4–F6, with 9 longitudinal sensilla (one of the apical ones much shorter than the others); scutellum with a row of frenal foveae; forewing (
Fig. 85
) about 2.9 x as long as wide, with about 4 rows of setae behind marginal vein; longest marginal cilia at most 1/4 greatest forewing width; petiole extremely swollen (1.2–1.3 x as long as wide), dorsally with numerous minute setae; ovipositor about 4/5 length of gaster, barely exserted beyond gastral apex (by about 1/20 of its own length); ovipositor length: metatibia length 1.2–1.3:1.
