Clypeus short, with its anterior margin bearing 7 denticles. Mandible subtriangular, with apical tooth large and curved, followed by a medium-sized subapical tooth, 4-5 minute teeth and a medium-sized basal tooth on masticatory margin. Mesosoma in profile almost flat dorsally; metanotal groove distinct. Propodeum in profile with a nearly straight dorsal outline; propodeal junction rounded; propodeal declivity weakly convex, not encircled by a rim. Petiole including subpetiolar process shorter than high, with its dorsal outline convex; subpetiolar process rather developed, with its ventral outline roundly convex, without angle or tooth; postpetiole shorter than petiole and shorter than high, in profile slightly elevated posteriorly.
