Diagnosis

Dorsal part of occipital carina reverse V-shaped, strongly angled, weak in the middle (Fig. 1 D). Posterior margins of metasomal tergites 2–4 with yellow narrow bands, 0.1–0.2 times as long as tergite (Fig. 1 F). Area basalis of propodeum enlongated and narrowed posteriorly, smooth (Fig. 1 E).

Distribution

China ( Zhejiang, Guangxi, Fujian, Taiwan).
