Wilson (1964) - Syntypes: Worker selected at random: HW 0.73mm, HL 0.82mm, SL 0.62mm. Antenna 10-segmented. Mandibles typical. Clypeus convex, entire, unarmed. Parafrontal ridge about 0.30 mm long. Occiput weakly convex. Basal face of propodeum convex, gently descending to the obtusely angulate junction with the declivitous face. The junction is not surmounted by a ridge and approaches the " evenly rounded " condition of some other members of the genus, e. g. powersi. Subpetiolar process a low lobe lying beneath anterior 1/2 of node. Pilosity sparse; less than 10 hairs break the mesosomal profile. Length of longest pronotal hairs only 0.15 mm.

Antennal "fossae" (the circular, sunken regions median to the parafrontal ridges) microreticulate and subopaque; rest of head shining. Entire mesosomal dorsum shining; entire sides microreticulate and subopaque to opaque. In addition, the mesopleuron is longitudinally rugose. Dorsum of pedicel shining; remainder microreticulate and opaque. Body concolorous dark (almost blackish), rich reddish brown; appendages medium reddish brown.
