This group contains only one species, which is morphologically quite unique in the Afrotropical region. Of special importance are the short, flat-margined anterior clypeal lobe with a small median triangular projection and the barrel-shaped petiolar node with its small, triangular node. These characters are in slightly modified ways also seen in several Neotropical and Malagasy species, while they are absent in the other Afrotropical species groups. However, the fact that
