Diagnosis.
This species differs from other New World species of
Synaldis
by the combination of the following characteristics: in lateral view, eye wider than temple (Fig.
17
); paraclypeal fovea middle size (Fig.
14
); mandible with three relatively large teeth, diagonal carina weak, mandibular apex wider than base;
F 1
2.7–3.3 × as long as wide (Fig.
15
); mesoscutal pit present, conspicuous (Fig.
16
); propodeum with areola, median longitudinal carina and transverse carinae complete (Fig.
21
); fore wing vein cu-a postfurcal, 1 - CU 1 shorter than cu-a (Fig.
18
); hind tibia 9.8–10.3 × as long as wide (Fig.
20
).
