clypeus (Fig. 2) with ventral
margin bluntly rounded and thickened, especially medially, without lateral
tooth; ventral
margin convex;
epistomal sulcus distinctly impressed throughout,
clypeus weakly protruding in profile. malar space (
1,
2) indistinct, very short, nearly absent. face (
1,
2,
3) densely covered with ventrally-directed, white setae in both sexes.
mandible with ventral
tooth distinctly longer than dorsal
tooth. Ocelli small,
lateral ocellus much shorter than distance between
ocellus and
eye.
maxillary palp shorter than
head height; female
antenna a little longer than
body;
first flagellomere with discrete tyloid (
1) containing fewer than 15 sensilla.
hypostomal carina joining
occipital carina well above base of
mandible;
occipital carina complete. Dorsal end of
epicnemial carina distant from anterior
margin of mesopleuron (
1,
2).
notaulus (Fig. 4) long, extending posterior to level of
tegula as a distinctly impressed, narrow groove (
1,
2), then becoming broad and shallow as it fades into a broad mesoscutal
depression posteriorly. Small but distinct u-shaped groove (
1,
2) present between propodeum (
1,
2,
3) and
metanotum in lateral view;
pleural carina complete, well-developed; propodeal carinae well-developed, nearly complete, with large areola open or weakly closed anteriorly (Fig. 5). Apical
margin of
mid tibia sharply expanded into a small but distinct
tooth similar to that on
fore tibia; apical comb on
hind tibia absent, at most poorly developed,
row of setae present on posterior face (
1,
2,
3) but these widely spaced, not dense as in typical comb; posterior hind
tibial spur at least 7x longer than maximum width at base; tarsal claws pectinate only at base, without pectination over at least apical half.
fore wing areolet present;
stigma relatively broad, Rs+2r arising at or near midpoint.
hind wing with first
abscissa of CU1 weakly to more commonly distinctly longer than 1cu-a. T1 (Figs 5, 6) not long and slender, gradually broadening posteriorly, usually with sharp, closely spaced dorsal carinae extending at least to level of spiracles; basal
depression at dorsal
tendon attachment distinct (Figs 5, 6); sharp dorsal-lateral
carina extending from
spiracle to apex of T1;
glymma very broad, deep, extending into median basal
depression, the two glymmae not meeting on each side posterior to basal
depression.
t2 thyridium absent; laterotergites of
t2 and
t3 completely separated by creases.
ovipositor straight, relatively broad at base, with distinct subapical
notch, the upper and lower
valves very narrow distad
notch;
ovipositor sheath (
1,
2) gradually expanded and rounded distally. Male
parameres broad, rectangular in dorsal view, never narrowly attenuate distally;
aedeagus rounded and weakly clubbed distally.
