Color of antennal clava (A7-A12): dark brown to black; A7, A8 brown, A9-A12 white to pale yellow. Shape of head: subglobose. Central keel of frons: absent. Setation of upper frons: glabrous. IOS/EH: IOS distinctly less than EH. Sculpture of ventrolateral frons: smooth to coriaceous; smooth to granulate. Sculpture of frons below median ocellus: smooth; smooth to granulate. Sculpture of posterior vertex: rugose; granulate to rugulose. Hyperoccipital carina: absent. Occipital carina medially: weakly indicated, irregularly sculptured. Length of OOL: less than 0.5 x ocellar diameter. Sculpture of postgena behind outer orbit: largely smooth with small granulate area. Ocular setae: sparse, short. A4 in female: distinctly shorter than A3. A5 in female: shorter than A3, as long as wide. Shape of female A6: distinctly wider than long. Color of mesosoma in female: orange throughout; yellow throughout; orange to pale brown. Sculpture of dorsal pronotal area: rugose. Sculpture of lateral pronotal area: smooth throughout. Sculpture of netrion: smooth. Notaulus: percurrent or nearly so. Sculpture of mesoscutum: granulate. Shape of mesoscutellum: semiellipsoidal. Foveolae of scutoscutellar sulcus between notauli: smaller than those along margin of axilla. Sculpture of mesoscutellum: granulate. Shape of metascutellum: posterior margin rounded, approximately 3.0 x wider than long. Sculpture of metascutellum in female: rugose. Dorsal propodeum in female: not excavate medially, lateral propodeal carinae meeting anteromedially. Sculpture of dorsal propodeum in female: rugose. Median keels on propodeum in female: absent. Mesopleural carina: absent. Sculpture of mesepisternum below mesopleural depression: smooth. Sculpture of ventral metapleural area: largely smooth, rugose ventrally.

Setae on R: long, erect, surpassing the margin of the wing. Length of R: distinctly shorter than r-rs. Length of R1: greater than 3.0 x length of r-rs. Color of metasoma in female: orange throughout; variably orange to pale brown; yellow throughout. Horn on T1 in female: absent. Sculpture of posterior margin of T1 in female: longitudinally striate throughout. Development of longitudinal striae on T2 in female: reaching the middle of T2 medially; reaching posterior margin of T2. Sculpture of T3: smooth. Shape of T6 in female: short, wider than long. Sculpture of S3: largely smooth with sparse and fine punctures. Figures 100-105. Calliscelio extenuatus sp. n., female, holotype (OSUC 48454). 100 Lateral habitus 101 Head and mesosoma, lateral view 102 Dorsal habitus 103 Head and mesosoma, dorsal view 104 Head, anterior view 105 Metasoma, dorsal view. Scale bars in millimeters. Diagnosis. This species is most similar to Calliscelio ruga and Calliscelio suni in size and habitus. It can be separated from Calliscelio ruga by the complete occipital carina and the shortened A6, from Calliscelio suni by the hairy compound eyes. Etymology. The epithet is an adjective, the Latin word for faint, weak and reduced, in reference to the weakly indicated occipital carina. Link to distribution map.
