bridge; malar space 3.2 MOD long; head 1.2X as wide as long; 
midocellus 2.5 MOD from ocular margin; ocelli arranged in a nearly 
equilateral triangle; hindocelli separated from ocular margin by 1 
diameter; subantennal distance 0.9 MOD; clypeal apex truncate; 
pronotum with fine short posteromedial line; mesopleuron without 
scrobal sulcus, punctation same as pronotum; metapleuron with 
zone of cross-ridging below hindwing base; propodeum with broad, 
polished, impunctate, vaguely margined, posteromedial stripe; terga 
polished and impunctate. Body black, except pronotum and scutum 
with faint blue tints; antennae, legs including coxae yellow, and 
mandibles yellow with red tips. 
Female unknown. 
Holotype male: MALAYSIA: Pasoh Forest Res., Negri S., 5 
November 1978. P. and M. Becker (Gainesville). Paratypes: 106 
males and 50 females, same data as type, except dates from May 
1978 to May 1980. 
Discussion. C. gilbus males have two ovoid foveae underneath 
the head, one on either side of the genal bridge. I have seen no other 
Cladobethylus males with this modification. Otherwise, gilbus can 
be distinguished by the densely cross-ridged scapal basin, yellow 
antennae, truncate, clypeal apex, subequal pronotum and scutum 
(in length), blue-tinted pronotum and scutum and metapleuron with 
short zone of cross-ridging.

Holotype female. Body length 2.5 mm; face (fig. 9); scapal basin 
smooth with short strip of cross-ridges on either side of broad 
medial stripe; clypeus short, broadly rounded; subantennal distance 
0.6 MOD; malar space 5 MOD long; face broad across genal region, 
about as broad as long; midocellus 2.6 MOD from ocular margin; 
ocelli arranged in nearly equilateral triangle; hindocelli separated 
from ocular margin by 0.3 diameters; mesopleuron with long 
parallel-sided scrobal sulcus, punctures larger than on pronotum; 
metapleuron cross-ridged from hindwing base nearly to midcoxa; 
propodeum posteromedial stripe rough and enclosed by strong Car- 
ina; T-I smooth and impunctate; T-II-IV smooth with tiny scattered 
punctures 4-6 PD apart. Body black with bluish tints on vertex and
