Antenna with solid clava. Frons with strong reticulation, clypeus smooth, antennal scrobes with weak reticulation; with genal carina. Vertex with strong reticulation.
Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, elongate on midlobe; midlobe without a median groove, with ten scattered adnotaular setae. Mesoscutellum with strong reticulation, meshes elongate; submedian grooves indistinct but traceable, wide apart, slightly curved and diverging towards posterior part; anterior pair of setae in median part of mesoscutellum. Dorsellum with strong sculpture, hidden under mesoscutellum and not visible in dorsal view. Propodeum with a strong median carina that splits in posterior part, forming an inverted “Y”; callus with two setae. Fore and hind coxae with strong reticulation, mid coxa with weak reticulation, fore coxa with a sharp edge along posterior margin, hind coxa without carina along posterior margin. Fore wing with 3–5 setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open below; costal setal row unbroken.
Petiole transverse with strong sculpture on dorsal part. Gaster elongate; medio-basal Gt
1
with a ±rectangular incision and with strong reticulation in anterior two-thirds, smooth in posterior one-third, remaining tergites with strong reticulation.
