Color of genal setae: white to off-white. Sculpture of base of mandible in female: smooth. Color of A1 in female: light to dark brown throughout, or with apex and base slightly lighter, often yellowish. Color of A3 in female: brown. Sculpture of dorsal pronotal nucha in female: predominantly to completely sculptured. Color of pilosity of pronotal shoulder in female: predominantly light brown to brown. Sculpture along humeral margin of mesoscutum: with effaced areas. Color of pilosity of mesonotum in female: predominantly light to dark brown. Transition from lateral to posterior margin of propodeum in dorsal view: smoothly curved, corner of propodeum undefined. Shape of mesoscutum in lateral view: more or less flat. Pilosity on metapleuron above hind coxa: with large patch of dense fine setae. Form of fore wing submarginal vein in female: tubular throughout from base to costal margin. Fine pilosity of lateral T1 in female: present. Width of metasoma: very wide, width of S3> 2 times medial length. Distribution of pilosity on T2-T5 in female: more or less evenly distributed throughout. Sculpture of T3 in female: longitudinally striate laterally with prominent reticulate to rugulose elements medially. Overall sculpture of S3: coarsely reticulate. Sculpture of medial S3 in female: present throughout.</paragraph>

At first impression the state of the posterior propodeal margin appears closer to that observed in species of the walkeri and pulchripennis groups with a margin that appears more or less rounded (Fig. 45). A very narrow perpendicular carina is visible medially adjacent the nuchal area, however, which may indicate that
