Diagnosis. Body brown; antenna incomplete, first flagellomere 1.8 × longer than second flagellomere ( Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 ); face smooth ( Fig. 2I View FIGURE 2 ); frons flat and smooth ( Fig. 2H View FIGURE 2 ); mandible with small fourth protuberance ventrally and no incision between second and third tooth ( Fig. 2K View FIGURE 2 ); pronope small ( Fig. 2H View FIGURE 2 ); mesopleuron smooth; episternal scrobe deep and narrow; metapleuron smooth ( Fig. 2C View FIGURE 2 ); notauli only anteriorly impressed, absent posteriorly; mesoscutum smooth; medio-posterior depression elliptical; scutellar sulcus with three carinae; metanotum sculptured, and weakly protruding; surface of propodeum smooth, except for some short rugae near carina, medio-longitudinal carina complete and areola absent ( Figs 2B, 2D View FIGURE 2 ); vein r of fore wing issued near base of pterostigma; SR1 of fore wing about 2.4 × 3-SR, m-cu of fore wing postfurcal ( Fig. 2A View FIGURE 2 ); first tergite of metasoma 1.2 × its apical width, parallel-sided or nearly so; dorsal carinae converging, and dorsope medium-sized ( Fig. 2D View FIGURE 2 ); length of setose part of ovipositor sheath 0.6 × as long as fore wing, and 1.7 × hind tibia ( Fig. 2L View FIGURE 2 ).
Description. Holotype, ♀, length of body 3.4 mm, of fore wing 3.5 mm.
Head.Antenna incomplete, with 27 antennomeres remaining, length of first flagellomere 1.8 × as long as second flagellomere, length of first and second flagellomere 6.0 and 3.3 × their width, respectively ( Fig. 2E View FIGURE 2 ); segments of labial palp rather slender; length of maxillary palp 1.2 × height of head; face smooth, with setae medially ( Fig. 2I View FIGURE 2 ); length of eye in dorsal view 1.2 × temple; POL: diameter of ocellus: OOL= 11: 10: 21; frons flat and smooth ( Fig. 2H View FIGURE 2 ); malar space without suture, and its length 0.1 × basal width of mandible ( Fig. 2I View FIGURE 2 ); mandible with small fourth tooth ventrally and no incision between second and third tooth, and 1.4 × longer than its maximum width ( Figs 2J–K View FIGURE 2 ).
Mesosoma. Length of mesosoma 1.5 × its height ( Fig. 2C View FIGURE 2 ); pronope shallow ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ); ventral side of pronotum smooth; mesopleuron smooth; episternal scrobe deep and narrow; metapleural flange smooth; metapleuron largely smooth ( Fig. 2C View FIGURE 2 ); notauli crenulate, present at almost anterior half of mesoscutum; mesoscutum smooth and glabrous, but with some setae near imaginary notaulic courses; medio-posterior depression narrow and elliptical; scutellar sulcus deep and smooth, with three carinae; scutellum smooth; metanotum largely reticulate-rugose and weakly protruding; surface of propodeum smooth, except for some short rugae near carina, medio-longitudinal carina complete and areola absent.
Wing. Fore wing: r issued near base of pterostigma; r:3-SR:SR1 = 8:25:60; 2-SR:3-SR:r-m = 8:8:25; 1-CU1:2- CU1 = 1:12; m-cu distinctly postfurcal and parallel to 1-M; CU1b about as long as 3-CU1 ( Fig. 2A View FIGURE 2 ).
Legs. Hind coxa smooth; tarsal claws rather slender; length of femur, tibia and basitarsus of hind leg 5.0, 11.3 and 10.0 × their width, respectively; length of hind tibia spurs 0.2–0.3 × hind basitarsus; hind tarsus normally setose ( Fig. 2G View FIGURE 2 ).
Metasoma. Length of first tergite 1.2 × its apical width, surface largely smooth, with some striate posteriorly; first tergite parallel-sided or nearly so, its dorsal carinae converging and distinct in basal half of tergite; dorsope medium-sized, rather deep ( Fig. 2D View FIGURE 2 ); length of setose part of ovipositor sheath 0.6 × as long as fore wing, and 1.7 × hind tibia ( Fig. 2L View FIGURE 2 ).
Colour. Body brownish; palpi, legs and tegulae yellow; first and second flagellomere, annellus, mandible, basitarsus and anterior part of second metasomal tergite yellowish brown; wing membrane subhyaline ( Fig. 1A View FIGURE 1 ).
Variation. Length of body of female 3.0– 3.6 mm, of fore wing of female 3.5–4.1 mm; first flagellomere 1.9–2.2 × as long as second flagellomere; first tergite of metasoma 1.0–1.3 × its apical width; length of setose part of ovipositor sheath 2.2–2.3 mm, 0.62–0.66 × as long as fore wing, and 1.7–1.8 × hind tibia.
Male. Similar to female except for the sexual characters.
Comparative diagnosis. The new species runs in the key to Palaearctic species by Belokobylskij (1997) to A. perdita ( Haliday, 1838) , but shares the weakly curved and comparatively short vein 3-SR of the fore wing with A. shelichovi Belokobylskij, 1997 . The new species differs mainly by having the first tergite nearly parallel-sided (distinctly widened in both A. perdita and A. shelichovi ). It differs from the latter also by the transverse clypeus (subtriangular in A. shelichovi ) and more transverse head.
Distribution. China.
Etymology. Named after the nearly parallel-sided first metasomal tergite.
