Male (Figs 25, 26).
Body length. 9–11 mm.
Head (Fig. 6). Compound eyes enlarged, extending well beyond temples; ocelli enlarged, diameter of lateral ocellus at least 0.7× OOL; lateral ocelli removed from vertex by nearly one ocellar diameter in frontal view; impressed line present between lateral ocelli; clypeus slightly convex but without projecting tubercle in lateral view, apex not bounded laterally by strong teeth; antennal socket rim only slightly thickened ventrolaterally; LID 0.8× UID; flagellomeres I-II length 2.7–2.8× breadth; flagellomere IX length 5.2–5.5× breadth; occipital carina strong but incomplete ventrally, without carina extending from foramen magnum to hypostomal carina medially; gular carina not raised; mandible narrowest submedially, tapering apically toward ventroapical tooth.
Mesosoma. Pronotum nearly vertical anteriorly, sloping posteriorly, punctures shallow and sparse medially, laterally deep and close, shoulders well developed, not produced laterally; forefemur without stout spines; foretibia without spines except apically; basitarsus with two spines on outer surface; tibial spur 0.9× length of basitarsus; hindcoxal longitudinal dorsal carina not tooth-like; scutal and mesopleural punctures separated by 0.5–1.0 puncture diameter; scutellum not arched dorsally above level of propodeum, punctures large, 0.5–1.0 puncture diameters apart, with polished impunctate area posteromedially; postscutellum impunctate medially; propodeum nearly impunctate, dorsal surface with shallow V-shaped trough medially, forming obtuse angle with posterior surface, separated from posterior surface by medially interrupted transverse carina, lateral surface with scattered punctures, 2–5 puncture diameters apart; forewing with 3 submarginal cells, costa extending long wing margin beyond stigma.
Metasoma. Tergum I without transverse carina; sternum I with narrow longitudinal medial groove extending most of length; sternum II without raised anterior portion.
Genitalia (Figs 46, 54). Gonostylus not excavate ventrally before apex and apical margin straight not excavate in lateral view; aedeagus broadest subapically and submedially, not decurved before apex in lateral view, apex simple.
Color. Head and mesosoma castaneous, metasoma darker, often nearly black; vestiture pale brown to black.
Female unknown.
