Scape yellowish-brown, pedicel and flagellum dark brown. Head with frons golden-green, scrobes black with metallic tinges and clypeus dark brown; vertex metallic bluish-green. Mesoscutum golden-green; mesoscutellum with lateral parts golden-green and median part metallic bluish-green; propodeum golden-green laterally and metallic blue medially. Legs with coxae metallic bluish-green; fore and mid trochanters pale brown, hind trochanter dark brown; femora with basal two-thirds golden-green and apical one-third yellowish-brown; tibiae and tarsi yellowish-white to yellowish-brown, T4 pale brown. Petiole black. Gaster metallic bluish-green, Gt2-5 metallic purple dorsally, Gt7 black; gonoplac black.
Antenna with distinct constriction between C1 and C2. Face below level of toruli with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, frons rugose, 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 on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without median groove, with 15 scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with weak reticulation on median part, lateral parts with strong reticulation, meshes elongate, with six scattered setae; submedian grooves distinct, slightly curved and diverging towards posterior part, with a ±complete median groove. Dorsellum with strong reticulation, with median carina. Propodeum with a strong median carina that expands anteriorly and posteriorly; with strong irregular carinae and strong reticulation; callus with four setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation. Fore wing with four setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum closed; costal setal row broken.
Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt1 with longitudinal carinae laterally; tergites with rather strong reticulation.
