Frontal triangle indicated by change in cephalic sculpture. Frontal carinae sinuate, with raised laminate lobes. Sides of head gently convex in front of eyes. Eyes only moderately convex, not reaching lateral cephalic outline in full face view. Mesosoma laterally marginate along entire length. Pronotal humeri armed with acute teeth, their margins raised and continuous with pronotal margins. Promesonotal suture distinct; metanotal groove indicated by shallow incisions in lateral margins. Propodeal dorsum with lateral margins terminating posteriorly in narowly rounded angles with weakly raised margins, appearing as small teeth in lateral view; medially propodeal dorsum rounding into declivity in an uninterrupted curve. Dorsal petiolar margin acute, with medial emargination flanked by pair of intercalary teeth; lateral margin somewhat jagged and terminates in outwards and weakly backwards directed, slender spines. Anterior face of first gastral segment concave, dorso-medial margin of concavity rather blunt.</paragraph>

Striation on pronotal dorsum distinctly converging anteriorly and medially; striae on mesonotal- propodeal dorsum converging towards propodeal declivity and oblique on sides. Petiole with both faces finely shagreened. First gastral segment longitudinally striate, striae on dorsum distinctly finer and converging medially towards anterior margin.</paragraph>

Gaster with numerous, short, backward-curved hairs, those closer to apex distinctly longer. Mostly appressed, greyish or silvery pubescence on all body surfaces, most diluted on head and pronotum, with denser patches on meso- and metapleura, lateral borders of propodeal declivity and propodeal dorsum, where it curves towards midline. Pubescence relatively abundant on gastral dorsum, but not hiding underlying sculpture.</paragraph>
