Mandibles relatively short (MDI 46–54), smooth and shiny, with few weak rugulae near the lateral base. Clypeus smooth, posteromedially with several faint rugulae, continuous with some rugae from frons, usually with two pairs of lateral carinae. Frontal carinae weakly developed, not surpassing anterior third of head, antennal scrobe absent. Frons longitudinally rugose, interspaces superficially punctate. Sides of head longitudinally rugulose and punctate to weakly punctate. Posterolateral lobes irregularly rugoreticulate, with anteriorly weakly to posteriorly superficially punctate interspaces. Scapes relatively short (SI 46–52) with mostly decumbent pilosity and few long erect to suberect standing hairs on outer edge. Submedian hypostomal teeth large and prominent, easily visible in profile view, median process absent. Promesonotal dome high and convex, wide in dorsal view with humeri slightly produced laterally, promesonotal process weakly defined, in profile very high, with almost inconspicuous to shallowly concave transverse groove and strongly defined angle toward steep posterior declivity. Dorsal surface of promesonotum transversely rugulose and weakly to superficially punctate, on highest point partly smooth, lateropronotum similarly sculptured with weak punctures medially, katepisternum superficially punctate to almost entirely smooth and shiny, remainder of mesosoma punctate to weakly punctate. Metanotal groove in profile not impressed, cross-ribs usually short and weakly developed, interspaces superficially sculptured. Spines relatively long-spinose (PSLI 14–17), acute, but shorter than distance between their bases. Metafemur short (FI 58–68), metatibia pilosity mostly decumbent, on outer edge with some subdecumbent to suberect hairs. Petiole in dorsal view very often anteriorly widened with short wing-like lateral processes, postpetiole in profile higher than long (LPpI 83–95), ventral process absent or very shallow, in dorsal view with relatively long lateral processes, at least 2.5 times wider than petiole node (PpWI 255–276). Petiole and postpetiole dorsally superficially punctate, remainder punctate. First gastral tergite smooth and shiny, anteriorly micropunctate. Standing hairs acute, relatively thin, of varying length, and very abundant, on head also with slightly shorter subdecumbent pilosity. Body color orange to light reddish brown, first gastral tergite often lighter colored, other tergites darker, legs dark yellow or orange.</paragraph>
