Mesoscutum rather smoothly coriaceous, notauli absentbut indicated by longitudinal coriaceous lines; midlobe between hypothetical notauli endingin a smooth, small hump which is membraneous and just covering base of scutellum; scutel-lum rather convex, smooth in its middle and haired at sides, provided apically with a shortspiny lamella; propodeal carinae fused, straight and long. Junction of Tl and T2 haired, ex-cept for a narrow, bare gap in the middle; T2 smooth; T3—T6 smooth, each tergite
