(Figs 1–4, 25): Frons, vertex, occiput, and gena polished, face appearing less polished due to punctation; frons weakly punctate and sparsely setose along eye margin, bare medially, with shallow median pit between antennal toruli, frons very weakly wrinkled on either side of pit; gena completely unsculptured; face deeply punctate throughout, punctures separated by about their own diameter except more widely spaced near margin of clypeus. Face 1.60–1.75 × wider than high. Width of ocellar field 1.45–1.55 × distance from lateral ocellus to eye. Eyes in dorsal view distinctly bulging beyond temples; eye in lateral view very large, 6.00– 7.15 × longer than temple. Malar space nearly absent, 0.05–0.10 × width of clypeus, about 0.10–0.15 × basal width of mandible; malar sulcus present but very short, difficult to discern. Clypeus 2.9–3.2 × wider than high, slightly protruding ventrally in profile, ventral margin evenly, shallowly concave; surface uniformly punctate, punctures more widely scattered than on most of face; anterior tentorial pits large, round. Mandibles with dorsal tooth longer than ventral tooth, ventral tooth only weakly twisted medially. Occipital carina widely separated from hypostomal carina ventrally; sharp and distinctly elevated throughout, extending dorsally just below top of eye in lateral view, weakly reflected medially at dorsal terminus; anterior margin impressed and weakly crenulate, especially dorsally. Hypostomal carina protruding as a short, low flange beneath mandible when mandible closed. Antenna with 44–46 flagellomeres; first flagellomere 2.4–3.1 × longer than wide, 1.10–1.25 × longer than second, twen-

(Fig. 8) 1.2–1.3 × longer than high, 1.85–1.90 × longer than wide; 1.45–1.50 × higher than wide. Pronotum dorsally with distinct median pit and transverse, weakly crenulate sulcus laterad pit, otherwise polished, with two transverse rows of setae; pronotum laterally with transverse sulcus visible as short, deep, pinched groove at dorsal extremity; vertical carina present all along and adjacent to anterior margin, more strongly elevated dorsally; posterior margin weakly crenulate from ventral corner to level of mesothoracic spiracle; surface otherwise completely smooth and polished. Propleural flange small but distinct, flat or nearly so, not strongly bent posteroventrally; not separated from remainder of propleuron by a sculptured groove. Notaulus a small dimple, not extending to anterior margin of mesoscutum; scattered setae present around notaulus, extending as a widely spaced row to tegula, setae on disc of mesoscutum varying from 2 pairs to none; midpit absent; lateral margin of disc acarinate between notaulus and tegula, sharply carinate posteriorad tegula. Scutellar sulcus narrow (Fig. 8), with 6–8 distinct ridges. Scutellum weakly convex, polished throughout. Metanotum with small, nearly flat median plate on posterior half, median carina on anterior half not extending onto posterior plate. Propodeum largely smooth and polished; with slightly irregular (wrinkled), median longitudinal carina bifurcating near middle to form a triangular areola over posterior 0.4–0.6; propodeum separated from metapleuron by shallow, weakly rugulose depression containing spiracle; depression pit-like anteriorly at margin of metanotum, propodeal side of depression margined by sinuate carina and, adjacent spiracle, an elevated boss; rarely with trace of additional carina on metapleural side of spiracle. Metapleuron broadly impressed and rugose around anterior, dorsal, and ventral dorsal margins; median plate polished, punctate, otherwise unsculptured. Mesopleuron largely polished and unsculptured, with band of setae and associated weak punctures extending from subtegular ridge to hind coxa; sulcus along hind margin of mesopleuron unsculptured throughout. Crenulate precoxal sulcus straight, extending over middle 0.3–0.5 of mesopleuron, incomplete anteriorly and posteriorly. Sternaulus absent.
