Propodeum higher than long, with dorsal outline almost flat, armed at posterior angle with an angulate tooth posterodorsally directed; posterior margin lamellate; propodeal lobe triangular. Propodeal spiracle round and situated slightly above mid-height of sclerite, and slightly posterior to mid-length of sclerite; distance from propodeal spiracle to posterodorsal corner of propodeum (PSL 0.13-0.14) about four times the diameter of spiracle (PSD 0.03-0.04), and distance to declivity (DPSD 0.06-0.07) about twice the diameter of spiracle.</paragraph>

Postpetiolar node nearly rectangular in outline, wider than long, slightly wider than petiolar node (PPW 0.19-0.21, PTW 0.18-0.19). Petiole, in profile view, longer than high (PTL 0.26-0.28, PTH 0.18-0.19) and with long peduncle; ventral outline of petiole nearly flat, anteriorly with subpetiolar process that is reduced to a small convexity; node differentiated from peduncle by rather distinct flection; node apically blunt, with posterior outline convex and with similar inclination as anterior outline. Postpetiolar node rounded and lower than petiolar node.</paragraph>

Upper two-thirds of phragmotic shield (mainly clypeus) finely shagreened and mat, with irregularly arranged stout rugulae. In profile, lateral face of head closely and minutely punctate; posterolateral portion of cephalic dorsum finely areolate-rugose. Dorsum of mandibles (constituting lower one-third of phragmotic shield) with similar surface sculpture as in upper portion of phragmotic shield. Pronotum almost entirely smooth and shiny, with polka-dot pattern seen through transparent cuticle; narrowed anterior portion (neck) and anterolateral area closely punctate and mat to coriaceous. Mesonotum superficially punctate and rather shiny; mesopleuron generally smooth and shiny. Metanotum (elevated narrowly transverse sclerite) sparsely punctate and shiny; furrows flanking it anteriorly and posteriorly minutely punctate and mat; metapleuron entirely closely puncto-reticulate. Propodeum entirely puncto-reticulate including spines and lateral lamellae on declivity. Petiole and postpetiole closely puncto-reticulate except for posterior face of postpetiole weakly rugose and dorsal central portion of postpetiole smooth and shiny. Gaster smooth and shiny, with anterior narrowed portion striate.</paragraph>

No visible hairs on cephalic shield. Outer margin of mandible with inconspicuous short appressed hairs; ventral face with erect or suberect hairs. Scape with appressed short hairs, without erect hairs. Promesonotum with less than ten long and fine erect hairs and sparse appressed pubescence. Propodeum often with a pair of suberect hairs. Petiole and postpetiole each with a pair of long suberect hairs and some decumbent hairs. Gaster with rather long appressed pubescence and long suberect hairs sparsely. Tibiae with decumbent hairs, without standing hairs. Body yellowish ferruginous; legs and parts of gaster, slightly lighter.</paragraph>

Pronotum with distinctly defined prescutum. Mesopleuron clearly differentiated from pronotum and metapleuron, divided into upper and lower portions by type of sculpture; lower portion anteriorly margined with distinct lamella. Metanotal groove impressed. Propodeum not clearly demarcated from metapleuron, about 1.5 times as high as long, with distinct dorsal face declining posteriorly, spines long and acute, posterodorsally directed and ventrally equipped with lamella that continues along posterior margin of declivity; the latter portion of lamella inflated below. Propodeal lobe triangular; spiracle rounded and situated slightly above mid-height of sclerite, and close to posterior margin of propodeum; distance from propodeal spiracle to posterodorsal corner of propodeum (PSL 0.07-0.09) much longer than diameter of spiracle (PSL 0.01-0.02), and distance to declivity (DPSD 0.01-0.02) as large as diameter of spiracle.</paragraph>

<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="357">With waist in dorsal view, petiolar node as wide as long (PTW 0.06-0.07, PNL 0.06-0.07), and postpetiolar node slightly wider than petiolar node (PPW 0.08-0.09, PTW 0.06-0.07). Postpetiole wider than long, slightly wider than petiole. In profile view, petiole longer than high (PTL 0.15-0.16, PTH 0.10-0.11) with relatively long peduncle; sternite ventrally equipped with lamella over its length and has almost straight outline. Petiolar node demarcated from anterior peduncle by distinct bent; its dorsum with flat outline, and longer than anterior slope and as long as posterior slope; posterior margin of node convex. Subpetiolar process forming a blunt denticle, its height measuring almost same as diameter of propodeal spiracle. Postpetiole much smaller and lower than petiole and globular; node weakly convex dorsally. Anterolateral corners of first gastral tergite distinctly tuberculate.</paragraph>

<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="357">Dorsal surface of head including clypeus principally smooth, except for frontal lobe, lateral transverse area of clypeus and area between antennal socket and outer margin of head that are longitudinally rugose; anterior slope of clypeus punctate. Lateral and ventral faces of head principally smooth and shiny. Mandibles nearly smooth on dorsal face, superficially sculptured on laterobasal portion. Promesonotum smooth and shiny, except for prescutum (neck) of pronotum and posterior extremity of mesonotum puncto-reticulate. Lower portions of mesopleuron and metapleuron punctate; upper portions of mesopleuron and metapleuron smooth. Dorsal surface and posterior declivity (upper half) of propodeum densely punctate (punctures larger than those on mesopleuron); lower half of declivity smooth. Petiole and postpetiole densely punctate, except for dorsal central portion of postpetiole very weakly sculptured and shiny. Gastral tergites smooth and shiny except for presclerite of first tergite densely sculptured.</paragraph>

group. In the major worker it is easily distinguished from the other Asian members of the genus by the combination of the following conditions: the anteriorly truncated head, posterolateral corner of head with a horn, 9-segmented antennae, distinct metanotal disc, deep groove in front of the disc, developed propodeal spines, and laterally lamellate propodeal declivity. Minor workers characteristically have lamellae on the venter of the petiole and on the lateral margins of the propodeal declivity (the lamella on the propodeal declivity involves propodeal spine and extends anteriad up to the anterior margin of the propodeal dorsum as a low carina), and sparse erect hairs on the body.
