Mesosoma: Pronotum clearly visible in dorsal view, even laterally, under the form of a broadly concave strip (length on the axe: 93,ju.), the hind limit with a well defined margin which slightly overhangs the fore margin and the sides of the mesoscutum; this one with a sharp, foveolated, longitudinal median furrow, extending to the axillo-scutellar furrows, and with two foveolated parapsidal furrows, sligthtly arched to each other but anteriorly practically obsolete and straight; under some angles of observation, they completely disappear at some distance from the common median foveola of the axilloscutellar furrows, but under other angles, one can guess their obsolete prolongation to that foveola. Not the slightest trace of a suture separing the axillae from the rest of the mesoscutum; foveolae of the axillo-scutellar furrows increasing from the median one to the sides; scutellum devoid of lateral carinae and of peripherical foveolae, sharply transverse (length/width = 175 /i/280 p). Both mesoscutum (includingaxillae) and scutellum are slightly alutaceous, with a long, sparse, nearly appressed pubescence; they form together a kind of ellipsoidal shield, well cut off by its dark colour and its convexity from the metanoto-propodeal complex, paler and clearly more below; metonotum in a very distinct, deeply foveolated strip surrounding the scutellum; dorsal part of the propodeum also deeply foveolated, its hind margin in lamellar carina, without median tooth, but laterally sharply toothed; propodeal spiracle circular (diameter: 40 . ), opening exactly under the lateral tooth, facing behind and surrounded by a pubescent strip; hind face ot the propodeum oblique, visible in dorsal view, in carinated collar. Sides of the pronotum generally alutaceous, but roughly shagreened or foveolated in the Y-shaped furrow (the fore branch of which extends dorsally and widens, to form the broad dorsal strip described ahead), near the fore coxae, and along a strip limited by the fore margin and a parallel furrow. Prepectus alutaceous, narrow, its hind margin being a foveolated furrow united in an arch to the furrow separing the mesopleuron and the metapleuron; lateral part of the mesopleuron alutaceous, separed by a strong carina from the pubescent, shagreened ventral part; metapleuron alutaceous, with a carina (bordered by foveolae) along the hind coxae up to the propodeum; the dark metapleuron specially well cut off from the paler propodeum. Wings: Fore wings (fig. 3) reduced to stumps keeping a vestige of the pterostigma; this one bears at least two setae (one, broken in the preparation, probably a bit shorter); the hind wings have not been distinguished but they are probably existing. Legs: Hairy, specially on the coxae; femora and tibiae, under the magnification x 100, clearly alutaceous. Metasoma: Tergites and sternites finely alutaceous; metanol collar relatively narrow, hardly pubescent and carinated (7 stronger carinae with some less distinct mixed ones); fore margin of this collar rugose; a tulft of hains at each sides under the collar and a few, sparse setae on the behind and the sides of the great tergite; this one longer (910 M ( than the mesosoma (775 n), occupying 7/10 of the length of the metasoma; gastrocoeli: a pair of shallow transverse furrow, without special coloration or microsculpture at mid-length of the tergite; great sternite pubescent in the medio-posterior part, alutaceous, with pale, longitudinal gastrocoeli, preceeded by some ten setae; following tergites and sternites alutaceous and pubescent. Mensurations: See the table. MALE unknown.
