Color brown. Major unknown. Minor worker: head shape broadly elliptical (CI: 8790), with relatively wide, slightly compressed posterior margin. In full-face view laterally projecting hairs present on head margin posterior of eye-level. Punctures in face variable, absent to superficial medially between eyes, stronger and more conspicuous in rest of face. Scape and metafemur moderately long (SI: 141145, FI: 167168), scape pilosity decumbent with additional erect to suberect hairs along outer edges. Metatibia pilosity appressed. Posterior and lateral pronotum smooth, rest of mesosoma with distinct punctures. Standing hairs coarse and moderately long and truncated, present on all dorsal surfaces.

Frons smooth, hexagonally microsculptured. Weakly to conspicuously punctate areas posteriorly, about halfway between posterior eye-level and posterior head margin, laterally towards eyes and anteriorly towards malar space.
