Dark brown with reddish areas, the anterior legs beyond the 

 femora and the posterior beyond the tibiae reddish-brown ; 

 scutellum longitudinally wrinkled ; abdomen not sculptured

5 . Entirely black. Slightly pubescent, the truncature of the 

 propodeum tomentose. Head globular, the occiput broad behind 

 the eyes, the posterior margin rounded ; antennas inserted below the 

 base of the eyes, a lateral oblique groove on each side marked by a 

 high ridge above receiving the scape when pressed downwards, and 

 separating the face from the cheeks and forehead ; head except face 

 rather coarsely closely not deeply, umbilicately reticulate-punctate. 

 Prothorax concealed ; mesonotum convex, produced laterally into 

 two anterior blunt angles ; dorsum punctured similarly to the head,

 scutellum ; pleura? more finely punctured, venter much more finely 

 and shallowly punctured ; distinct oblique grooves in the pleura?

 propodeum is concave, the abdomen fitting into it. 



Posterior legs covered evenly with well separated punctures ; the 

 coxaa and trochanters short, the femora stout, the single spine on 

 the apex of the tibia reduced to a mere rudiment, the metatarsus 

 longer than the other tarsal joints united, the fourth joint about one

 at the stigma, a slightly dark spot at the apex ; the free part of M 4 

 and the spur of the transverse part of M, wanting.
