D e s c r i p t i o n: ♀: Body length 6.5 - 7 mm. Flagella with 30 - 34 segments; 1 st flagellomere length 3.6 - 4.0 x width; preapical flagellomeres slightly longer than wide or square. Temples narrow, strongly narrowed behind eyes; head 2.4 x wider than long. Ocelli small, distance of lateral ocelli to eyes 1.1 x and between them 1.7 - 1.8 x their diameter. Face moderately narrowed ventrally, finely rugose-punctate, minimal width 0.55 x eye length and 0.85 x width of frons. Malar space length 0.3 x width of mandibular bases. Genal carinae moderately bent outwards ventrally, reaching mandibular bases in an angle of almost 90 °. Hypostomal carinae not elevated. Mesopleural discs granulate and distinctly punctate; specula granulate, matte; dorsal impressions strongly striate. Prepectal carina strongly and lamelliform elevated ventrally, not notched medially, pleural parts narrow, absent on transversal parts. Metapleura rugose-punctate, ventrally with some rugae. Propodeum with basal carinae (area basalis and 1 / 3 - 1 / 2 of area superomedia); area superomedia wider than long; area petiolaris widely but slightly, sometimes stronger impressed, with rugae, with ± transverse rugae or ridges in apical parts. Hind femora length 4.7 - 5.6 x width; length of inner spurs of hind tibiae 0.65 x hind metatarsus length. Areolets stalked, 2 nd recurrent veins in or slightly distal to the middle; nervuli distinctly postfurcal; postnervuli intercepted behind middle; external angles of discoidal cells acute (80 °); nervelli of hind wing reclivious, not or weakly intercepted. 2 nd tergite length 1.8 - 2.1 x width; thyridia longer than wide or roundish, distance from basal margins 1.5 x their length; 3 rd tergite length 0.9 - 1.0 x width. Colour: Black. Palps reddish-yellow; scapes sometimes reddish ventrally; mandibles except reddish teeth and tegulae black, rarely tegulae reddish or yellow. Metasoma black, sometimes 3 rd and 4 th tergites with narrow reddish apical margins. All coxae and trochanters black; legs otherwise red; hind femora sometimes narrowly infuscate at apex; hind tibiae yellowish basally, pale brownish subbasally and apically; middle tarsi apically and hind tarsi except pale bases of metatarsi blackish. Pterostigmata brown. ♂: Body length 7 - 7.5 mm. Flagella with 30 - 31 segments; preapical flagellomeres almost square. Head 2.1 x wider than long. Malar spaces length 0.4 x width of mandibular bases. Specula granulate, sometimes ± shining. Hind femora length 4.7 x width. 2 nd tergite length 1.5 - 1.6 x width; 3 rd tergite length 0.85 x width. Tegulae yellow or brownish.
