Longitudinal rugae on cephalic dorsum prominent, wavy to irregular, area posterolateral to frontal carinae and posterior margin weakly to moderately rugoreticulate; interrugae strongly granulate, dull. Mandible with six teeth, dorsal surface coarsely rugose. Eye relatively small, situated anterior to middle of head. Base of antennal scape weakly to moderately granulate, distal portion strongly granulate, dull. Psammophore poorly-developed, consisting of short hairs scattered across ventral side of head.

All mesosomal surfaces with subparallel, weakly irregular rugae to rugoreticulate. Pronotal collar rugoreticulate, mesoscutellum and scutellum with irregular longitudinal rugae. Dorsum of propodeum with wavy to irregular transverse rugae, sides rugoreticulate. Propodeum with long, well-developed superior and inferior spines, inferior spines about 0.6–0.7x the length of superior spines. In profile, petiolar node asymmetrical with anterior surface notably shorter than posterior surface, apex of node subangulate. In dorsal view, petiolar node longer than wide (width/length <0.85), widest near middle, tapering to a rounded to subangulate anterior margin. Anterior surface of petiolar node moderately sculptured; sides and posterior surface rugoreticulate and “lumpy” in appearance, interrugae moderately granulate. In dorsal view, postpetiole widest near posterior margin, tapering to anterior margin, maximum width about equal to length, relatively narrow compared to petiolar node (PW/PPW <0.75), all surfaces strongly granulate, dull. Anterior one-half of first gastral tergum strongly granulate, dull, posterior portion moderately coriarious, weakly shining. Moderately abundant yellowish-brown to brownish hairs on entire body, longest hairs on head and mesosoma approach to slightly exceed MOD. Entire body concolorous dark reddish-brown (
