Small species.Head subrectangular (longer than wide) in full-face view.Body pilosity composed of filiform, sparse, short, and erect setae. Dorsal mesosomal outline convex; propodeal dorsal and posterior surfaces separated by a strongly marked corner. Petiolar node with a distinct truncate dorsal surface. Cinctus on A4 present, mild.
