Holotype. TL 1.9, HL 0.47, HW 0.38, CI 81, ML 0.25, MI 53, SL 0.28, SI 74, PW 0.25, AL 0.50. Dorsolateral margin of head with 2 freely laterally projecting flagellate hairs, one at level of eye, the other apicoscrobal. Side of alitrunk entirely reticulate-punctate, without smooth shining patches on pleurae. Bullae of femoral glands very conspicuous, those on fore femora distinctly larger than those on middle and hind femora. Basitarsus of hind leg with 2 very long erect fine flagellate hairs on its dorsal (outer) surface; a single similar hair on dorsal (outer) surface of hind tibia. Propodeal teeth short and narrowly triangular. With petiole in profile height of anterior face of node about equal to length of dorsum of node, the two surfaces meeting through a well defined but blunt anterodorsal angle. Petiole node in dorsal view broader than long, roughly transversely rectangular. Basigastral costulae very short, their length on the tergite hardly greater than thickness of limbus, very much shorter than length of the reticulate-punctate postpetiole disc.
