88 Z. BOUCEK 



tibiae and tarsi more or less reddish brown. In paratype pronotum, sides of thorax, propodeum 

 and legs mainly rufous instead of black. Wings distinctly infuscate along anterior margins. 



Head hardly broader than pronotum, dorsally about 2-3 times as broad as long. Occipital 

 carina percurrent down on temples to below middle of eyes, at edge dorsally microscopically 

 striate, running about one-third diameter behind lateral ocelli; temples extremely short. 

 POL : OOL as 12*5 : 9-0, ocellar triangle about 2-1 : 1. Occipital neck separated from 

 occiput by rather narrow and nearly smooth groove, its sides dorsally raised, expanded, 

 minutely striate. Vertex coarsely and not very densely punctured, small depressed areas 

 outside of lateral ocelli and in front of median ocellus smooth, latter ocellus half its diameter 

 from scrobes; scrobal carina sharp, forming at moderate frontal protuberance a low tooth which 

 bears short carina at the angle. Face finely punctured with slight rugosity, with scattered 

 coarser punctures; pubescence extremely short; interantennal lobe bluntly carinate, supraclypeal 

 area convex. Head in facial view nearly 1-2 times as broad as high, relative breadth 71, 

 frontovertex 37, face below antennae 31, height of lower face 27, breadth of scrobes 21, eye 

 39 : 27, its inner orbit shallowly emarginate; malar space 16, width of mouth 20. Clypeus 

 slightly convex, i-i times as high as broad; lower margin produced, sublaterally raised, 

 medially depressed and slightly emarginate, usually with a weak median tooth. Upper inner 

 edge of mandibles broadly truncate, notch small, lower tooth not reaching level with truncate 

 edge. Antennal flagellum subfiliform, combined with pedicellus i-i times as long as breadth of 

 head; pedicellus dorsally elongate, about as long as first flagellar segment; flagellar segments 

 2—5 subequal, about 1-25 times as long as broad, eighth quadrate; clava subacuminate, hardly 

 shorter than two preceding segments combined. 



Puncturation of thorax not very dense, interspaces often as broad as punctures, dull, 

 microscopically cross-striate ; pubescence thin, short. Pronotum convex, premarginal carina 

 indicated by slightly raised and more or less impunctate line, hind margin not raised, broadly 

 emarginate, sides converging; lateral panel in moderately deep depression nearly impunctate, 

 posteriorly with short vertical carina, lower corner rectangular, slightly rounded. Mesoscutum 

 convex; vestiges of parapsidal furrows as long as their distance from lateral margin. Scutellum 

 moderately convex, not depressed at margin, fully 1-4 times as broad as long; interspaces 

 distinctly striolate in arch along base and sides which are converging caudad; axillae unusually 

 small. Dorsellum bare, about 3-3 times as broad as long, with coarse dots and deep arched 

 fovea on either side along the raised sublaminate margin; this margin slightly produced over 

 propodeum and lowered medially. Propodeum very coarsely sculptured but puncturation 

 indistinct; median carina high, 1-5 times as long as dorsellum; between carina and high plicae 

 some irregular longitudinal carinae behind basal row of coarse alveolae; deep postspiracular 

 fovea closed posteriorly by high carina; pubescence fine, laterally dense, at median carina 

 directed sideways. Femoral depression of mesopleurum deep; interspaces on upper 

 mesepimerum smooth. Fore femur dorsally subcarinate, externally nearly smooth; fore tibia 

 dorsally and laterally rounded. Hind coxa below dorsal edge, above lateral edge and parti- 

 cularly ventrally, extensively smooth, not punctured, but dorsal edge punctured and densely 

 hairy, posteriorly ending with smooth obtuse lobe; depression on broad median streak rather 

 sparsely punctured with short hairs directed towards apex. Hind femur i-6 times as long as 

 broad (teeth including), rather sparsely and moderately coarsely punctured; laminate basal 

 tooth followed by 9 small and not very slender teeth (Text-fig. 97). Hind tibia externally 

 rather densely punctured, at apex slightly obliquely truncate, outer spur longer than half 

 width of tibia; basitarsus dorsally nearly 1-5 times as long as width of tibia. Fore wing: 

 apical processus of stigmal vein hardly developed, uncus slender, distinct. 



Gaster slightly longer than head plus thorax, dorsally about 2 -4 times as long as broad, apex 

 appearing subacuminate. First tergite hardly 0-75 the breadth of the fifth, about i-i times as 

 broad as long, almost without any punctures over basal two-thirds and broadly along median 

 line, anteriorly sublaterally on each side with deep longitudinal depression (furrow) ; punctures 

 densest near hind margin where bearing thick white pubescence directed obliquely caudad, 

 towards median line. Fourth tergite with hind margin straight, surface finely and very densely 

 punctured and pubescent, hairs directed obliquely sideways. Fifth tergite distinctly longer
