Fig. 62B
) with strong transverse posterior keel, reticulate rugose, dull; propodeal declivity dull, reticulate rugose, with one or two longitudinal keels; areolae of propodeal declivity about as large as those of metapectal-propodeal disc. Forewing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; distal part of 2r-rs&Rs vein much shorter than proximal part (2:7). Paramere (

Etymology
. The species is named
malagasy
after the collection site in
Madagascar
.
Remarks
.
Anteon malagasy
is similar to
A. kwazuluense
Olmi, 2007
, but the propodeal declivity has areolae as large as those of the metapectal-propodeal disc (the areolae are less wide than those of the metapectal-propodeal disc in
A. kwazuluense
).
Anteon malagasy
is also similar to
A. madagascolum
(
Benoit, 1954
)
, but the shape of the inner process of the paramere is different (
Figs 56E, F
).
