Diagnosis.
Alloxysta mullensis
has a closed radial cell, a propodeal plate, and no pronotal carinae. It is similar to
A. fracticornis
, but they can be easily differentiated by the proportions of the length of flagellomeres: F1 subequal to pedicel, F1 longer than F2, and F2 subequal to F
3 in
A. mullensis
(
Fig. 17
), while F1 longer than pedicel, F1–F3 subequal in length in
A. fracticornis
(
Fig. 20
).
Short redescription.
Head brown, mesosoma and metasoma dark brown; scape, pedicel and F1–F3 dark yellow, F4–F11 yellowish brown; legs and veins yellow. Female antennae 13-segmented; F1–F3 smooth and thinner than remaining ones, F4–F11 club-shaped, with rhinaria; pedicel subequal to F1, F1 longer than F2, F2 subequal to F3, F3 shorter than F4 (
Fig. 17
). Male antennae 14-segmented; as female without any flagellomere curved. Pronotum covered with sparse setae, carinae absent. Propodeum with abundant pubescence, two carinae present forming a plate with sides slightly curved. Forewing longer than body, radial cell closed, 2.2 times as long as wide (
Fig. 8
).
