Male.
Body length. 7–8 mm.
Head (Fig. 3). Compound eyes slightly enlarged, barely extending laterally beyond temples, inner margins somewhat emarginated; ocelli small, diameter subequal to pedicel length; of lateral ocellus at least 0.7× OOL, removed from vertex by 0.5 or less an ocellar diameter in frontal view; impressed line present between lateral ocelli posteriorly; clypeus nearly flat, not visible above mandibles in lateral view, without projecting tubercle, apex not margined by strong teeth; antennal socket rim only slightly thickened ventrolaterally; LID 0.9× UID; flagellomere I length 2.3× breadth; flagellomere II length 2.8× breadth; flagellomere IX length 4.2× breadth; occipital carina strong but incomplete ventromedially; mandible narrowest submedially, tapering apically toward ventroapical tooth.
Mesosoma. Pronotum nearly vertical anteriorly, punctures deep, contiguous close, shoulders well-developed, not produced laterally; foretibia without spines except apically; basitarsus with row of three spines on outer surface; tibial spur 0.9× length of basitarsus; hindcoxal longitudinal dorsal carina elevated, angulate basally; mesonotal and mesopleural punctures deep, 0.5–1.0 puncture diameter apart; scutellum elevated above level of propodeum, with polished impunctate area medially; postscutellum densely punctate; propodeum nearly impunctate, dorsal surface with shallow medial, longitudinal groove, dorsal surface separated from posterior surface by transverse ridge, ridge interrupted medially, lateral surface with punctures 1–2 puncture diameters apart; forewing with 3 submarginal cells; costa continuing along wing margin beyond stigma.
Metasoma. Tergum I without transverse carina; sternum II without raised area basally.
Genitalia (Figs 43, 51). Gonostylar apex arcuately excavate in lateral view; aedeagus not decurved before apex.
Color. Head and body concolorous castaneous to black; vestiture brown.
Female unknown.
