Females of Dinocarsiella brevicula sp. nov. are generally similar to D. alpina (Girault, 1917), D. pulcherrima Erdös (1957) and D. quinqueguttata (Xu, 2000) in habitus. D. brevicula sp. nov. can be separated from the other species by the combined followings: mesoscutum completely dark brown; antennal scape about 3.3 × as long as broad; forewing strongly shortened with its apex not reaching base of gaster. Description. Female. Body length (including ovipositor sheath) about 1.5 mm; head mainly yellow (Fig. 1), except vertex adjacent to occipital margin marked brown, and interantennal prominence longitudinally marked brown in middle; outer side of torulus with dark brown band toward eye margin; occiput black; thorax and gaster almost entirely dark brown (except pronotum anteriorly with two yellowish white spots on each side, visible only in slide mounted specimens (Fig. 2 )); antenna (Fig. 4) entirely dark brown; tegula (Fig. 5) brown; forewing (Fig. 6) brown; hind wing (Fig. 7) yellowish brown; legs (Figs 8 – 10) mainly black, but first segment of mid tarsus yellow, first segment of fore and hind tarsus yellowish brown. Head. Head (Fig. 1) about 2.1 × as wide as frontovertex; ocelli forming an angle slightly more than 60 °; distance between posterior ocellus about twice length of its own diameter; eyes not reach occiput margin; distance between torulus about same as its own diameter; distance between torulus and clypeus mouth margin about 1.2 × as long as torulus diameter; antenna (Fig. 4); scape distinctly expanded and flattened, about 3.3 × as long as broad; pedicel about 2.0 × as long as broad, about 0.6 × as long as F 1; funicular segments becoming shorter towards apex, F 1 about 3.5 × as long as broad, F 6 about 2.8 × as long as broad (and about 0.8 × as long as F 1); clava 3 - segmented, about as long as length of F 5 and F 6 together, apex more or less rounded. Thorax. Mesonotum slightly convex, with reticulated sculpture; mesoscuum with notaular lines complete; scutellum about as long as broad (Fig. 3); forewing (Fig. 6) strongly shortened and about 1.7 × as long as broad, apex not reaching base of gaster; mid tibia spur about 0.8 × as long as basitarsus (Fig. 9). Gaster. Gaster with ovipositor (Fig. 11) not exserted or hardly so, a quite shorter than mid tibia (about 0.6 ×); hypopygium reaching apex of gaster; cerci located in apical half of gaster.
