The dorsal outline of the alitrunk is smoothly curved without a break and the propodeal spines are long and curved. The petiole node is steeply peaked in profile. Length: 2.3-3.4 mm. Queen. Uniformly dark with gaster often banded, middle of scutellum unsculptured, smooth. Length: 3.7-4.2 mm. Male. Dark with very pale appendages and shortened funiculus segments - nos 2 to 5 are only very slightly longer than wide. Tibiae and scapes have no erect hairs. Length: 2.5-3.0 mm. Distribution.
