Mesosoma. Length of mesosoma 1.5 × its height; pronotum subhorizontal anteriorly, antescutal depression absent, with narrow crenulated groove and with anterior lamella medially widened ( Fig. 57 ); side of pronotum smooth, but oblique groove finely crenulate ( Fig. 50 ); mesopleuron convex, shiny and smooth; precoxal sulcus present submedially as finely crenulate oblique groove; episternal scrobe large and linear ( Fig. 50 ); pleural sulcus crenulate; mesosternal suture deep and finely crenulate; notauli nearly complete, smooth and distinctly impressed, and posteriorly with medium-sized longitudinal groove in between ( Fig. 51 ); with some setae along notauli and on middle lobe of mesoscutum, mesoscutal lobes distinctly convex, strongly shiny and smooth; scutellar sulcus distinctly crenulate ( Fig. 51 ); scutellum wide triangular, slightly convex, smooth, setose and shiny; metapleuron largely smooth and setose; propodeum evenly convex, largely rugulose, medio-longitudinal carina long and posteriorly connected to a small areola ( Fig. 51 ).

Neognamptodon laticauda sp. n. , ♂, paratype. 60 habitus, lateral aspect 61 mesosoma, dorsal aspect 62 wings 63 propodeum, first–third metasomal tergites, dorsal aspect 64 head, dorsal aspect. Colour. Dark brown; palpi whitish; scapus, tegulae, legs (but telotarsi infuscated) and metasoma ventrally pale yellowish; head (but stemmaticum dark brown), propleuron, pronotum anteriorly, mesopleuron antero-dorsally and apical third of metasoma yellowish brown; pterostigma and most veins of fore wing (except basally) brown ( Fig. 49 ); wing membrane subhyaline.
