). Body length: 9 mm. General appearance similar to the female, with yellow clypeus and labrum, antennae are more than half of the body length long and reddish, except for a black streak on the whole dorsal part; black scape; mandibles are black, but reddish in the distal half. Mesosoma. With long silky whitish setae. Black legs with whitish setae. The hind femur, in the lower median part, has a small pointed tubercle equipped with a tuft of brownish bristles. Metasoma. As in the female, is dark brown, but all segments are covered with white felt, and T6 on the sides has 2 prominent teeth, one on each side. The last sternites are provided with a long and deep longitudinal median sulcus. Genitalia and hidden sterna. S6 without anterolateral marginal projections; posterolateral carina curved laterally at each side. S7 with medial process rounded and attached at the posterior lobes of lateral processes; the posterior lobes of lateral processes are relatively short with straight superior margins; anterior lobes of lateral processes wide with straight superior margins and rounded lateral-inferior margins. S8 with a wide concavity between rounded apical lobes; apicomedian ventral process well defined and saddle shape, with a large depressed area at the base. Genital capsule with the apex of the gonostylus remarkably arched, and inward-facing triangular protuberance placed slightly over the central part of the gonostylus.
