I20 Cameron, Hymenoptera Orientalia. 



thickly covered with pale hair. Mesonotum closely and 

 uniformly punctured ; its middle lobe slightly raised. 

 Scutellum raised, pyramidal, thickly covered with long, 

 black hairs ; the depression at the base deep, the post- 

 scutellum rugosely punctured. The keel on the median 

 segment is curved laterally ; at the middle it does not 

 join the base of the segment, being separated by a small, 

 smooth, square area ; the part of the sides enclosed by it 

 is closely punctured, the punctures more minute at the 

 base, running at the apex into obscure reticulations ; the 

 apex of the segment is broadly depressed in the middle, 

 and strongly transversely striated. The upper part of the 

 propleurae closely punctured ; the lower strongly striated, 

 the striae rounded and meeting in the middle of the 

 hollow. Mesopleurae strongly punctured ; the part below 

 the tubercles very finely and closely, the base of the hollow 

 more strongly and irregularly, striated. The central 

 furrow on the mesosternum is triangular at the base. 

 Wings smoky, with a violaceous tinge towards the apex ; 

 the areolet is narrowed, almost appendiculated at the top; 

 the recurrent nervure is received shortly beyond the 

 middle. All the coxae and the four hinder trochanters are 

 black ; the hinder femora are black in front ; the hinder 

 tarsi are blackish. The petiole, second and third segments 

 are broadly black above ; the others only narrowly black.

 but not deeply, incised on the inner side above. Clypeus 

 not separated. Mandibles with two stout, unequal teeth.
