Level of posterior ocular margins located generally on posterior fifth portion of head (PoOc/CL: 0.21-0.25). Anterior margin of clypeus straight; posterior margin medially notched. Mandible triangular, apical margin armed with six sharp teeth. Antennal scape relatively long (SL/CS: 0.92-1.02), more than one third of apical portion of antennal scape extending beyond posterior cephalic margin. Promesonotum slightly, broadly convex, dorsum and sides separated by margination; anterodorsal angle of pronotum projecting anteriorly into a ridge. In dorsal view, mesonotum less than twice as broad as long; posterodorsal angle without extended lobe. In lateral view, propodeum not strongly compressed anteroposteriorly; dorsal portion of propodeum raised and abruptly strongly sloping posteriorly; junction to declivity marked by blunt angle; dorsolateral portion of propodeum marginate, distance between meso-metapleural suture and dorsolateral margin of propodeum remaining the same along dorsolateral margin of propodeum; propodeal spiracle located on declivitous surface. Width of meso-metapleuron and propodeal lateral portion together noticeably greater than width of lateral portion of pronotum. In side view, maximum width of procoxa larger than width of meso-metapleuron. In profile, anterior and posterior margins of petiolar node convex. Junction of abdominal segments III and IV without visible constriction.</paragraph>

<paragraph pageId="42" pageNumber="123">Dorsum of head anteriorly finely and densely reticulate punctate, the punctures deepening posteriorly. Mandible smooth and shining between scattered punctures. Mesosoma dorsum finely and densely reticulate punctate. Gastral tergites smooth and shining apart from shallow punctures from which erect hairs or pubescence arise. Pairs of whitish erect hairs numerous on dorsum of head and mesosoma; hairs randomly scattered on gastral tergites. Erect hair present on declivitous surface above propodeal spiracle. Near posterolateral margins to posterodorsal corner of petiolar node with a row of whitish erect hairs. Much shorter and sparse erect hairs organized transversely on anterior and posterior portions of each gastral tergite; pubescence reduced. Integument generally black; basal portion of legs dark brown and becoming lighter towards metatarsi; antennal scape basally brown and apically black to dark brown.</paragraph>

Eyes positioned more on frontal portion of head, level of posterior ocular margins located approximately on posterior fourth portion of head (PoOc/CL: 0.23-0.25); mandible strong; one sixth of apical portion of antennal scape surpassing posterior cephalic margin (SL/CS: 0.92-0.96).
