Sternaulus indistinct. Posterior transverse carina of mesosternum complete. Metanotum about 0.5× as long as scutellum. Metapleuron without distinct juxtacoxal carina; submetapleural carina complete, strong. Pleural carina of propodeum strong; propodeal spiracle small, oval, separated from pleural carina by less than its length. Propodeum almost entirely covered with transverse wrinkles, long, its apex reaching behind middle length of hind coxa, but not reaching apex of hind coxa. Propodeal carinae rather weak, lateromedian longitudinal carinae partly obsolescent. Area basalis very short and small, almost negligible. Area superomedia granulate with transverse wrinkles and without distinct punctures, ca 2× as long as wide, lateral carinae convergent apically; area superomedia apically opened, confluent with area petiolaris.
