Figure 10 Diagnosis. 2nd submarginal cell reduced to a small dot, petiole longer than cell is high. Tegula black, concolorous with mesoscutum. Fore tarsus entirely pale. Description. Body length . 3.8 mm. Head . Space between antennal insertions with a weakly developed bulge that is weakly declivous posteriorly, dorsal surface of bulge with a shallow longitudinal groove. Number of flagellomeres 29. Posterior surface of scutellum posterior scutellar depression represented by several (2-3) pits. Mesosoma . Number of pegs on mid tibia = 5. Number of pegs on hind tibia = 8. Sclerite between metasoma and hind coxa narrow with a high ridge along most or all of its length. Length-width of hind femur 0.911/0.292 = 3.1. 2nd submarginal cell reduced to a small dot, petiole longer than cell is high. Hind wing vein Cub emanates from near anterior apex of apical margin of subbasal cell, Cub short and weak. Notauli meeting but sculpture not extending much outside of well-defined grooves. Metasoma . MT1 length distinctly longer than apical width. MT1 with narrowly-spaced, longitudinal striae, with some microsculpture between striae, and with and two pairs of slightly stronger striae (carinae). MT1 distinctly wider apically than ba sally . Ratio of widest point of MT1 to narrowest point 0.475/0.3 = 1.6. Length-width ratio of MT1 0.695/0.475 = 1.5. MT2 entirely smooth. Ovipositor much longer than metasoma, about as long as body or longer. Color . Mostly melanic except as follows: mouthparts yellow except galea melanic; fore and mid legs yellow except coxae, trochanters and base of femora melanic; hind tibia mostly pale, melanic in apical third with a pale, tan, lateral, spot near base; anterior metasomal laterotergites and sternites mostly pale yellow; fore wing weakly infuscate. Tegula black, concolorous with mesoscutum. Ocellar triangle melanic, concolorous with remainder of vertex. Hind tibia mostly pale, melanic apically and with a subbasal melanic band or lateral spot, or mostly pale, melanic apically only. Fore tarsus mostly or entirely pale. MT2 entirely melanic. Figure 10.
