The female of this species can be recognized by the unique combination of characters: lacking a well­defined dorsal carina on the antennal scrobe, a small, slight ventral angulation located basally on the mandible, a distinctly petiolate metasomal segment 1, the granulate pygidium, presence of distinct plumose setae especially on the fringes of the metasomal tergites, the second metasomal tergite with swollen integumental regions located just lateral of the midline, and the setal coloration pattern.
