.
♀
(
Fig. 94F
). Fully winged; body length
4.1–5.1 mm
. Testaceous-reddish, except head brown-reddish, median region of metasoma brown and petiole black (in specimen from
Madagascar
,
17°45’33’’S
48°51’17’’E
, head ferruginous, except ocellar triangle black, and metasoma totally ferruginous); antenna testaceous-reddish, except antennomere 10 brown (in specimen from
Madagascar
,
17°45’33’’S
48°51’17’’E
, antenna testaceous, except antennomeres 9–10 brown). Specimen from

,
21°15.05’S
47°24.43’E
, testaceous-reddish, except head black and posterior half of metasoma darkened. In specimen from
Madagascar
,
21°15.99’S
47°25.21’E
, head black, except part of mandible, part of malar space and occiput ferruginous. Antenna clavate; antennomeres in following proportions: 13:7:17:9:7:8:8:8:7.5:11. Head convex, shiny, with frons completely reticulate rugose and vertex and temple strongly punctate, unsculptured among punctures; frontal line complete; frons without lateral keels near orbits directed towards antennal toruli; vertex behind ocellar triangle with tracks of two incomplete oblique keels connecting lateral ocelli to occipital carina; occipital carina complete; POL = 4; OL = 3; OOL = 7; OPL = 9; TL = 5; greatest breadth of lateral ocelli longer than OL (4.5:3). Pronotum anteriorly crossed by strong transverse impression, shiny, finely punctate, unsculptured among punctures; posterior surface broader than long, shorter than mesoscutum (11:24), with lateral margins sharp; pronotal tubercle reaching tegula. Mesoscutum and mesoscutellum shiny, punctate, unsculptured among punctures. Notauli incomplete, reaching approximately 0.9 × length of mesoscutum (0.8 × in specimen from
Madagascar
,
17°45’33’’S
48°51’17’’E
). Metanotum shiny, unsculptured. Metapectal-propodeal disc reticulate rugose, without transverse posterior keel; propodeal declivity almost completely dull and reticulate rugose, except very small central smooth area punctate and unsculptured among punctures. Forewing with two dark transverse bands; distal part of 2r-rs&Rs vein longer than proximal part (20:14). Protarsomeres in following proportions: 11:3.5:6:9:22. Enlarged claw (
Fig. 92F
) with one bristle situated further distally than proximal prominence. Protarsomere 5 (
Fig. 92F
) with three rows of approximately 31 lamellae (many lamellae much longer than others); apex with approximately eight lamellae, among which one much longer than others; tibial spurs 1/1/2.
♂
(
Fig. 95A
). Fully winged; body length 2.1–2.4. Head black, except mandible testaceous; antenna browntestaceous; mesosoma and metasoma black; legs testaceous, except metacoxa partly brown. Antenna filiform, with setae shorter than breadth of antennomeres; antennomeres in following proportions: 6:3.5:6.5:5:5:5:5:5:4:8. Head shiny, finely punctate, unsculptured among punctures; vertex without two oblique keels from lateral ocelli to occipital carina; frontal line absent; occipital carina complete; POL = 5; OL = 3; OOL = 5; OPL = 2; TL = 3; greatest breadth of lateral ocelli slightly shorter than OL (2.5:3). Mesoscutum shiny, as sculptured as head. Notauli incomplete, reaching approximately 0.5 × length of mesoscutum. Mesoscutellum and metanotum shiny, punctate, unsculpured among punctures. Metapectal-propodeal disc dull, reticulate rugose, with transverse posterior keel (keel dorsally extending to anterior margin of metapectal-propodeal disc; metapectal-propodeal disc very reduced (
Fig. 89F
)); propodeal declivity completely reticulate rugose, without longitudinal or transverse keels. Forewing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; distal part of 2r-rs&Rs vein slightly longer than proximal part (9:8). Paramere (
Fig. 87F
) with one very large distal inner branch (margins of branch showing many small papillae). Tibial spurs 1/1/2.
