Figs 15–18 Etymology: From Latin lascivus (playful, cheerful). Description: Female . Body length 2.86 mm . Head moderately narrowed behind eyes in dorsal view; temple 0.56 times as long as eye width. Flagellum of antenna with 14 segments; sub-basal flagellomeres about 1.6 times as long as wide, subapical flagellomeres 1.2 times as long as wide ( Fig. 15 ). Upper tooth of mandible longer than lower tooth. Malar space subequal to basal width of mandible. Face and frons granulate. Vertex very finely granulate, matt.Temple smooth and shining. Mesonotum finely granulate, impunctate. Notaulus substituted by a strong sharp carina about 1.5 times as long as second flagellomere width. Mesopleuron finely granulate, with fine punctures centrally. Sternaulus in anterior part of mesopleuron slightly impressed, with weak transverse wrinkles. Propodeum evenly granulate, impunctate, with short dorsal transverse carina near anterior margin (confining basal keel anteriorly); basal keel mostly distinct, 0.6 times as long as apical area, vanishing posteriorly near transverse carina; spiracle separated from pleural carina by about 2.0 diameters of spiracle; apical area rounded anteriorly ( Fig. 17 ), its longitudinal carinae distinct, reaching transverse carina. Fore wing length 2.28 mm . First section of radial vein longer than width of pterostigma. Metacarp almost reaching apex of fore wing ( Fig. 16 ). Second recurrent vein interstitial ( Fig. 16 ). Vein 2 rs–m very short ( Fig. 16 ). First tergite length 0.62 mm , posterior width 0.2 mm ; tergite moderately slender, mostly smooth, with petiole very finely striate laterally, without glymma.
