Right mandible, outer view. two-thirds, broadening slightly at base, shiny and finely rugose; rest of propodeal surface shiny but coarsely rugose. Apical margins of metasomal S2 to S4 concave, as is gradulus of S2. Pygideal plate dull, faintly rugose with some coarse punctures basally. Sculpture. Head: clypeus with basal area coarsely punctate, surface between punctures shiny, punctures becoming finer and less dense towards apex, apical margin practically impunctate and finely reticulate; frons coarsely punctate either side of frontal ridge, becoming more finely punctate in para-ocular areas and towards anterior ocellus, area between ocelli and preoccipital ridge coarsely punctate; small triangular area between lateral ocelli and preoccipital ridge shiny and impunctate or with scat- tered fine punctures. Mesosoma: scutum finely punctate on disc, punctures coarser lateral to parapsidal line; median line distinct, extending one-third length of segment; scutellum finely punctured, coarser posteriorly and laterally; metanotum finely punc- tured; propodeum finely rugose, triangle shiny and faintly strigose. Metasoma: Tl shiny with fine scattered punctures on apical margin; T2, T3 and T4 shiny with denser fine punctures, T5 with coarse punctures, surface between punctures finely rugose; S2 to S5 finely punctured, areas between punctures finely reticulate, apical margins Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original South African Museum.
