Redescription - 3.1-4.7 mm. Head, antenna, mesosoma, propodeum laterally to central propodeal area, metasoma amber to light brown; central propodeal area, metanotum, nucha black; veins dark brown, legs pale brown. Head granular-coriaceous, with sparse white setae; 2.3-3.25 times as broad as long from above (Fig. 63); 1.25-1.5 times as high as broad in front view. Gena not punctate, broadened behind eye, 1.2-1.4 times as broad as cross diameter of eye; malar space 0.5 times as long as height of eye. POL 1.5 times as long as OOL; OOL 2.0-2.3 times as long as diameter of ocellus, slightly longer than LOL (Fig. 63). Transfacial line 1.3-1.4 times as long as eye height; diameter of torulus 2.0 times as large as distance between torulus, slightly shorter or equal to distance between torulus and inner margin of eye; lower face with short and weak striae, irradiating from clypeal area. Clypeus rectangular, with very indistinct anterior tintorial pits, with distinct epistomal sulcus and clypeo-pleurostomal line. Antenna 13-segmented, nearly 0.6 times as short as body length; pedicel 1.25-1.4 times as long as broad, Fl equal or only slightly longer than F2, and 2.2-2.5 times as long as pedicel; F3 longer than F4; subsequent flagellomeres con­sequently shorter, F7-F10 much longer than broad, Fl 1 3.0 times as long as broad; the ratio of scapus, pedicel and Fl-Fl 1 - 0.81 : 0.4 : 1.0 : 1.0 : 0.78 : 0:72 : 0.56 : 045 : 04 : 0.4 : 0.32 : 0.6 (Fig. 64). Mesosoma. Ventro-lateral edge of pronotum with strong striae, rest uni­formly coriaceous, with sparse short white setae (Fig. 65); anterior rim of pro­notum black, with striae; distance between acetabular carina and dorso-anterior rim of pronotum 1.3 times as long as distance measured prolong line between propleura and prosternum; propleuron brown, coriaceous, with very indistinct del­icate longitudinal striae, 1.4 times as high as broad in front view, prosternum dark brown, with striae, furcal pit small but distinct. Scutum coriaceous, with sparse pu­bescence; notauli always complete and reach pronotum, uniformly deep through­out entire length, converging posteriorly; median scutal line in a form of short tri­angle posteriorly; parapsidal lines well-marked, broad and reach 2/3 of scutum; an­terior parallel lines aslo well-marked, broad, reach to half of scutum. Mesopleuron coriaceous, with sparse short white setae, acetabular carina narrow (Fig. 65). Scutellum ovoid or subquadrate, 1.15-1.3 times as broad as long, not marginated laterally, not lobed posteriorly, dull rugose, disk anteriorly and medially im­pressed; scutellar foveae transversely ovate, deep, with smooth or alutaceous, not pubescent bottom, separated from each other by narrow and strong carina (Fig. 13). Lateral propodeal carinae strong and uniformly broad, bent outwards from middle to posterior edge; delimiting delicately coriaceous or alutaceous central area, usually without wrinkles (in some specimens few delicate carinae present posteriorly), with few white setae in upper lateral parts, prolong lateral carinae; lat-
