largest teeth just above eyes; eyes rather small, much shorter than 
temples (5:10); antennal socket with two little teeth directed 
forwards; scape finely shagreened, as long as 7 following segments 
combined, longer than wide (12:3), pedicel moderately oblong (4:2), 
segments 3-8 more narrow than pedicel, progressively shortened, as 
long as wide till slightly transverse, almost peniciliate; club (9-1 ith) 
abrupt, massive, progressively thickened, apical segment longest and 
widest, segments of club in proportions 3:4; 4:5; 7:5.5. 
Mesosoma hairy like head, distinctly elongated (28:12) and con- 
stricted ; prothorax dorsally with scattered punctures and tufts of 
hairs, distinctly neck-like protruded anteriorly; mesonotum only very 
slightly convex, smooth, highly polished, with only few isolated 
setigerous punctures; propodeum flat and almost smooth dorsally, 
with few scattered shallow punctures; posterior margin only slightly 
excavated, with no teeth or spines. 
Petiole slightly elongated (10:7.5), with several indistinct longi- 
tudinal costae; rest of metasoma elongated (35:20), rather obtuse 
apically, with scattered hairs all over. 
Goecopria gen.n. 
Female . — Head heavily and evenly punctured all over, punctures 
deep, dense and contiguous; seen from above head either almost 
globose or elongated; antennal socket distinctly protruded forwards; 
frons more or less excavated at antennal shelf, bordered laterally 
(above eyes) with a ridge that tends to disappear medially; ocelli 
absent; eyes strongly reduced to one ommatidium point obviously 
devoid of function ; mandibles opisthognathous, protruded backwards 
to form a beak; maxillary palpi reduced to an oval 1 -segmented 
process, labial palpi appearing completely absent; antenna 9 or 10- 
segmented, with an abrupt 3-segmented club. 
Mesoma showing different degrees of apterism in fusion of 
sclerites and sutures; mesoscutum always fused with scutellum and 
metanotum; prothorax either separated from mesothorax by a suture 
or fused with it; propodeum separated from thorax in two species 
but fused with it in one species; mesosoma almost flat above, all 
sclerites at same level ; wings and tegulae absent but preserved as 
minute scales in one species; dorsal part of mesosoma either smooth 
and shining or punctured densely like head ; tarsi 5 or 4-segmented ; 
spur of front tibia very long. 
Petiole cylindrical, elongated ; front margin of great tergite slightly 
elevated in collar, notched medially; great sternite with longitudinal 
horseshoe-shaped fold with pilosity in the anterior part.
