( Figs. 1A , 3A ) Studied material – 10 & 4. Holotype : 1 (in CNC ) 17-II-1983 at Napo bellow Papallacta 3000 m , ( Ecuador ), L.M. Masner col. Paratypes : Ecuador : 4 & 1 same Holotype’s data. 6 & 2 (in MZLU-MS ) 24-II-83 at Napo Papallacta 3800 m ., Lars Huggert col. Etymology – This name was chosen because the large wings, which this species has in common with several species of Eucoilinae collected at the same altitudes. Length of head + mesosoma + metasoma in female: 3.5 mm to 4.4 mm ; in male: 3.2 mm to 3.9 mm . Colour – Female. Head and mesosoma black, metasoma blackish brown. Scape, pedicel, F1 and F2 black, remaining flagellomeres changing to brown. Mandibles brown with reddish brown teeth. Legs dark brown. Veins of wing medium to dark brown. Male. Differs from female in having all of the flagellomeres black. Head – Female. Covered by sparse long hairs. Malar furrow slightly curved; postocular furrow absent ( Fig. 3A ). Occipital carina absent. Malar space 0.77 to 0.92 times the height of the compound eye. Transfacial line 0.56 to 0.58 times the greatest width of the head and 1.15 to 1.43 times the height of a compound eye. Pleurostomal lines very weak. Antennal foramina separated from each other by 0.76 to 0.80 times the distance between the foramen and the compound eye. Male. Malar space 0.66 to 0.77 times the height of the compound eye. Transfacial line 0.54 to 0.57 times the greatest width of the head and 1.0 to 1.2 times the height of a compound eye. Antennal foramina separated from each other by 0.5 to 0.8 times the distance between the foramen and the compound eye. Antennae – Female. F1 to F4 slightly expanded in width at the apex. Length of F1 1.41 to 1.60 the length of F2. Scape and pedicel covered with sparse pubescence. Flagellomeres covered with dense pubescence. Antennal formula: 14 (3.5): 4 (3): 15 (3): 10 (3): 8 (3.2): 7 (3.2): 6 (3.5): 6 (3.6): 6 (3.7): 5 (4): 5 (4): 5 (4): 11 (4). Placodeal sensilla start on F2 but they are absent dorsally on F2, F3 and first 1/3 of F4. Male. Flagellomeres cylindrical. Length of F1 1.3 to 1.5 the length of F2. Flagellomeres covered with short sparse pubescence. Antennal formula: 9 (4): 3 (3): 14.5 (3): 11 (2.8): 10 (2.8): 10 (3): 9 (2.8): 9 (2.7): 9 (2.5): 9 (2.4): 8 (2.4): 8 (2.4): 8 (2.4): 11 (2.3). Placodeal sensilla start on F1 and only lacks in a small area of basal part of F1. F3 to F5 slightly expanded dorsolaterally with a longitudinal ridge on the raised part. Mesosoma – Female. Anterior pronotal plate rounded dorsally or weakly incised ( Fig. 3A ) and with long white pubescence at the lateral areas and sparse pubescence on the central area, near the dorsal margin smooth or with a weak trace of transversely carinulate sculpture. Lateral surface of pronotum with quite dense pubescence and with coarse areolate sculpture. Mesoscutum in lateral view 1.5 to 1.6 times higher than long; in dorsal view 1.2 to 1.4 times wider than long. Median mesoscutal impression very short, at most a little longer than broad. Notauli reaching 1/2 to 2/3 the length of mesoscutum ( Fig. 1A ). There is a conspicuous line of hairs on the anterior and lateral margins of the mesoscutum. Scutellum in dorsal view 1.40 to 1.47 times the length of the mesoscutum. Scutellar foveae smooth in the anterior part and with rugose sculpture in the posterior part ( Fig. 1A ). Lateral pit of scutellar fovea big, 1.4 to 1.7 times longer than wide; the distance from median scutellar carina to the inner margin of the pit 2.8 to 3.2 times the width of the pit. Scutellar spine broad at base narrowing gradually towards apex ( Fig. 1A ). Scutellar disc in lateral view slightly slopping to base of scutellar spine, which is horizontally directed at base and slightly curved downwards towards apex ( Fig. 3A ). Mesopleural impression straight and wide (wider on the basal part) and without transverse carinae. Messolpeural triangle with dense pubescence anteriorly and sparse pubescence posteriorly. Propodeum with coarse, areolate sculpture, lateral and median propodeal carinae absent. Male. Mesoscutum in lateral view 1.50 to 1.68 times higher than long; in dorsal view 1.06 to 1.20 times wider than long. The line of hairs on the anterior and lateral margins of the mesoscutum is weak. The scutellar foveae less sculptured than in the female. Scutellum in dorsal view 1.27 to 1.42 times the length of the mesoscutum. The distance from median scutellar carina to the inner margin of the pit 2.4 to 2.6 times the width of the pit. Scutellar spine almost straight in lateral view, the apex not ventrally directed. Mesoscutal impression not as wide as in the male. Wings – Female. Marginal cell closed, 3.0 to 3.2 times longer than wide. Marginal pubescence of the wing starting from vein R1. Male. Marginal cell 2.9 to 3.0 times longer than wide. Metasoma – Female. Petiole 3.00 to 3.25 times as long as wide, dorsally smooth, laterally smooth with short longitudinal carinae near the anterior end, ventrally longitudinally carinate. Third abdominal tergum dorsally 0.85 to 0.96 the length of the fourth tergum. Male. Petiole 2.66 to 3.00 times as long as wide. Third abdominal tergum dorsally 0.82 to 1.07 the length of the fourth tergum.
