Median portion of vertex behind stemmaticum with correspondingly dense punctures. Malar space about 0.3 × as long as basal mandibular width. Postocellar line approximately 0.8 × as long as ocular-ocellar line. Flagellomeres elongate. Mesopleuron ( Fig. 6 ) with large posteromedian smooth shiny area. Fore femur weakly compressed, 4.0 × as long as maximum width; outer profile of middle tibia with sparse short tooth-like setae. Areolet pentagonal ( Fig. 10 ). Propodeum ( Fig. 7 ) in dorsal view slightly expanded medially; anterior 0.3 of lateromedian longitudinal carinae present. Second tergite 0.85 × as long as first tergite. Lower portions of anterior 2 ridges of lower valve of ovipositor ( Fig. 9 ) distinctly reclivous, posterior 2 slightly inclivous or subvertical. Mesosternum yellow brown or black. Differential diagnosis The new species is similar to D . nakamurai ( Uchida, 1928 ) , but can be distinguished from the latter by the postscutellum being shiny, transverse, with sparse fine punctures; the propodeum ( Fig. 7 ) almost as long as its maximum width, evenly expanded medially; tergite 2 ( Fig. 8 ) shorter than its maximum width; mesosternum ( Fig. 1 ) yellow brown or black; tegula dark-brown to brown; hind femur dark redbrown. Dolichomitus nakamurai (Figs 13–14): postscutellum matt, quadrate, with dense punctures; propodeum (Fig. 13) distinctly longer than maximum width, not expanded medially; tergite 2 (Fig. 14) 1.1–1.2 × as long as posterior width; mesosternum entirely black; tegula yellow; hind femur reddish brown. Etymology The specific epithet is derived from the host’s food plant.
