Cyphacolus bhowaliensis (Mani & Mukerjee) : Austin & Iqbal, 2005 : 18 , 21 (generic transfer, keyed). Description. Female . Body length: 1.98 mm (n=1). Antenna color: antennal A1 yellow, remainder of antenna dark brown. Body color: mostly light honey yellow except transverse band on lower head, metapleuron, dorsal and lateroposterior 1/3 of metasomal horn on T1, lateroposterior areas of metasoma T2, distal half of T3 and posterior 1/4 of T4 dark brown. Coxae color: honey yellow. Leg color (excluding the coxae): honey yellow. Fore wing color: basal 1/3 and area at 2/ 5 hyaline, area below stigma infuscate as well as area beyond basal 1/3. Head shape in lateral view: broad, short. Sculpture of antennal scrobe: with weak sinuate transverse costae. Shape of torular triangle: not bulging, flat. Development of central keel on frons: completely absent. Sculpture of frons: completely cover by fine, sinuate, transverse ridges. Sculpture of malar space: nearly completely cover by fine, semicircular ridges from antennal scrobe. Medial surface of vertex: flat to weakly convex (normal). Size of lateral ocellus: small (as in C. bouceki ). Shape of occipital carina: simply arcuate medially. Sculpture of occiput: smooth. Sculpture of pronotal cervical area: smooth medially, otherwise with elongated foveae. Sculpture of pronotal lateral area: upper half with dorsoventrally elongate foveae, otherwise smooth. Netrion: absent, obscured by longitudinal sculpture on lateral pronotum. Notauli: absent. Sculpture of mesoscutum: completely cover by broad longitudinal costae, these converging anteriorly. Sculpture of mesoscutellum: most of dorsal area smooth except posterior 1/3 with broad, longitudinal carina. Mesoscutellum shape: strongly convex, wider than long. Sculpture of lateral propodeum: densely, transversely costate. Shape of propodeal anterior spines: elongate, narrow, apex conspicuously broadened. Sculpture of propodeum between anterior spines: transversely costate. Sculpture of ventral mesepisternum: largely smooth, with sparse, setigerous punctulae. Density of longitudinal costae on dorsal mesepisternum: sparse. Thickness of longitudinal costae on dorsal mesepisternum: broad. Length of longitudinal costae on dorsal mesepisternum: reaching to approximately half of speculum width. Sculpture of mesopleural femoral depression: smooth. Sculpture of metapleuron: upper 2/3 mostly smooth, ventral area weakly rugulose, metapleural sulcus longitudinally costate. Shape of wings: very convex in lateral view, with a conspicuous constriction at 2/5 of its length. Shape of horn on T1 (in posterior view): narrow and short. Lateral carinae on posterior part of horn: present, cristate, not fused posteriorly. Sculpture on upper portion of T1 horn: longitudinally carinate. Sculpture of posterior portion of T1 horn: mostly smooth, with few longitudinal carinae. Lateral carinae on T2: present and conspicuously. Male .
