Propleuron mostly lacking sculpture, smooth and shiny; mesopleuron with longitudinal striae at dorsal and ventral margins, otherwise smooth and shiny; pubescence mostly lacking. Basalar lobe with coarse striate sculpture. Metasternum lacking paired elongate, spiniform processes between hind coxae. Petiole widest at base, gradually tapering apically to a short spine directed rearward; mostly lacking striae with only faint striae present near base; subpetiolar process rounded triangular; appressed pubescence present anteriorly and laterally, but mostly absent posteriorly.

Ocelli large, length of each ocellus greater than distance between lateral ocellus and eye margin; in full-face view, lateral ocelli protrude beyond posterior border of head. Mesosoma: pronotum lacking sculpture; mesoscutum with fine transversely arcuate striae anteriorly, striae becoming longitudinal posteriorly; mesoscutellum convex, shiny, with longitudinal striae; propodeum long and low without a declivious posterior face, with fine striae in concentric ovals medially, transversely bisinuate posteriorly, and longitudinal laterally. Mesopleuron with weak to slightly strong transverse striae. Petiole bluntly rounded apically, with rounded triangular subpetiolar process anteriorly; densely pubescent anteriorly and laterally, with reduced pubescence posteriorly. Abdominal sternum IX disc very short, breadth almost three times length; posterior lobe length about twice width. Telomeral apex very narrowly rounded, almost angular; telomere length distinctly greater than height; valviceps ventral apex weakly produced, narrow; valviceps apical margin linear to weakly concave; apicodorsal lobe of valviceps somewhat narrow and short; vertical portion of dorsolateral carina and lateral margin of subapical lamina curving into one another.
