MESOSOMA (Fig. 60H–I). Length 1.6× its width in lateral view (Fig. 60I); side of pronotum superficially rugulose-reticulate; mesoscutum regularly and densely reticulate; notauli absent; scutellar sulcus with seven crenulae (Fig. 60H); scutellum reticulate; mesopleuron regularly and densely reticulate and with smooth and shiny area posteriorly, precoxal sulcus absent; propodeum reticulate, without median carina, with irregular transverse carina connected to four weak and blunt tubercles laterally. WINGS (Fig. 60G). Fore wing 2.9× as long as its maximum width; second submarginal cell sessile; vein m-cu weakly postfurcal; veins r and 1-SR+M straight; vein SR1 slightly curved apically; length of 1-R1 1.1 ×pterostigma;vein r issued far beyond middle of pterostigma, 0.8×vein r-m; r: 2-SR: SR1=11: 32: 60; vein 1-CU1 0.3× as long as vein 2-CU1. Hind wing: M+CU: 1-M: 1r-m =23: 37: 14. LEGS (Fig. 60F). Hind femur 3.6× as long as wide; longest spur of hind tibia 0.5× as long as its basitarsus; hind leg smooth and shiny except fine and superficial punctation; middle tibia without ivory blister. METASOMA (Fig. 60J–K). Elliptical in dorsal view (Fig. 60J), carapace 2.0× as long as wide and as long as mesosoma; first to third tergites densely reticulate-rugose; third tergite as long as second tergite, medial length of third tergite 0.6× its maximum width; lamella of third tergite not protruding medio-apically and with pair of blunt tubercles latero-apically (Fig. 60K). Male Unknown. Host Unknown. Distribution China (Taiwan). Remarks Phanerotomella rugulosa sp. nov. is similar to P. brevifemorata sp. nov. because of the brown flagellum except basally yellowish, and the temple in dorsal view narrowing behind the eye. However, P. rugulosa can easily be distinguished from P. brevifemorata by having vein m-cu postfurcal (antefurcal in the latter), the second submarginal cell sessile (distinctly petiolate in the latter), and the lateral border of the metasoma in dorsal view less curved (more curved in the latter).
