Clistopyga inti may be distinguished from all other species of the C. calixtoi species group by the following combination of characters: genal orbits widely interrupted with brown or black (Figs 21A, 21D–E); pronotum with mid lateral part black, dorsally and usually anteroventrally with wide white cream lateral bands (Figs 21C, 21E); mesopleuron ventrally white cream (Figs 21A, 21E); metasoma with posterolateral well defined yellow marks on tergites I–VI, clearly separated from posterior rim (Figs 21A, 21I); epomia as a very small tubercle or short carina at the bottom of the submarginal depression of pronotum (Fig. 21C); metapleuron 2.15–2.25x as long as high (Fig. 21F); submetapleural carina extended on anterior 0.4 of metapleuron (Fig. 21F); hind leg with femur 3.75–3.8× as long as high; ovipositor relatively slender evenly and slightly to moderately up-curved on distal 0.35 (Fig. 21A, 21J), 2.1–2.25× as long as hind tibia; ovipositor sheath 1.7–1.87× as long as hind tibia. Description. Female: Body length 6.8–8.1 mm. Fore wing length 5.0– 5.6 mm. Head (Figs 21A–B, 21D–E). In dorsal view, moderately narrowed posteriorly to eyes. Gena shiny with very sparse setiferous punctures, in dorsal view slightly rounded, about 0.3× as long as eye, in frontal view strongly constricted ventrally to eyes, with straight profile. Frons and vertex smooth and shiny, with very isolated setiferous punctures. Posterior ocellus separated from eye 0.95–1.0 its maximum diameter. Distance between hind ocelli 1.0–1.1× maximum diameter of posterior ocellus. Hypostomal carina not lamelliform posteriorly to mandible. Face with shallow and moderately dense setiferous punctures, distance between them about its diameter. Clypeal suture strongly curved. Clypeus 2.0–2.05× as broad as medially long, moderately convex and with isolated fine punctures dorsally, flat and smooth ventrally, ventral margin slightly incurved. Malar space 0.9–1.0× as long as basal mandibular width, with shallow and slightly granulate subocular sulcus. Antenna with 25–26 flagellomeres, first flagellomere 5.5–7.0× as long as medially wide. Mesosoma (Figs 21A, 21C–H). Pronotum smooth and shiny with few setiferous punctures on posterior dorsal corner. Epomia as a very weak and short carina or tubercle at the bottom of the submarginal depression of pronotum. Mesoscutum shiny, with moderately dense shallow setiferous punctures, denser on anterior part of median lobe; anterior half of median lobe not conspicuously prominent, confluent with posterior half. Notaulus weak, reaching about 0.5 the length of mesoscutum. Mesopleuron shiny, with evenly sparse shallow setiferous punctures except at mid and dorsal posterior part. Epicnemial carina weak, its dorsal end straight, ending at level of centre of pronotum. Metapleuron, smooth and shiny, glabrous, 2.15–2.25× as long as high. Submetapleural carina, extended on anterior 0.4 of metapleuron. Propodeum shiny with evenly sparse fine setiferous punctures, in dorsal view about 1.2 as long as medially wide. Propodeal spiracle 0.12–0.13 the length to anterior end of pleural carina. Hind leg with femur 3.75–3.8× as long as high, about 1.0× as long as tibia. Fore wing with vein cu-a opposite to Rs & M; vein 2 rs-m 0.35–0.37× as long as abscissa of M between 2 rs-m and 2 m-cu; abscissa of Cu 1 between 1 m-cu and Cu 1 a 1.6–1.8× as long as Cu 1 b. Hind wing with vein cu-a 0.3 × as long as abscissa of Cu 1 between M and cu-a; vein cu-a slightly reclivous, first abscissa of Cu 1 vertical, sometimes vein cu-a + first abscissa of Cu 1 not angled, vertical; distal abscissa of Cu 1 absent. Metasoma (Figs 21A, 21I–J). Tergite I 1.45–1.5× as long as posteriorly broad, shiny, with sparse setiferous punctures laterally and posteriorly, spiracle near its anterior 0.4; lateromedian longitudinal carinae present at anterior 0.2 of tergite; lateral longitudinal carinae present at posterior 0.2 of tergite. Sternite I extending posteriorly 0.6 the length of tergite. Tergite II 1.2–1.27× as long as posteriorly broad, with relatively dense shallow punctures, distance between punctures less than its diameter; punctation of posterior tergites tending to be slightly shallower. Ovipositor relatively slender, evenly up-curved at 0.35 distal, 2.1–2.25× as long as hind tibia. Ovipositor sheath 1.7–1.87× as long as hind tibia, ventral margin basally without denticles, length of setae on average about 2.2× the sheath basal width. Colouration (Fig. 21). Head mostly white cream, with apex of mandibles, lateral parts of clypeal suture, fovea, wide longitudinal stripe at middle of face, frons and vertex medially, middle and dorsal part of gena and occipital region, dark brown to black; antenna light brown, scapus, pedicel, annellus and first and second flagellomere, lateroventrally white cream. Mesosoma mostly light orange; propleuron dorsally, mid lateral part of pronotum, axillae, ventral part of metapleuron, metasternum, and part of propodeum, black; propleuron ventrally, ventral anterior and dorsal lateral wide band on pronotum, two longitudinal stripes on mesoscutum posteriorly to notauli, tegula, subalar prominence, scutellum dorsally, postscutellum, well defined longitudinal band on mesopleuron, mesepimeron, and lateral parts of propodeum, white cream. Metasoma mostly dark brown to black; tergites I–VI with white cream posterolateral marks, tergites II–IV with black posterior band; tergite I with white cream anterior lateral marks; ovipositor dark orange; ovipositor sheaths black. Legs predominantly white cream; front leg with dorsal stripes on femur and tibia brown, distal part of tarsi, orange; mid leg with base of trochanter, dorsal stripe on femur, dorsal and ventral stripes on tibia, and distal part of tarsi, brown; hind leg with anterior and posterior spots and sometimes dorsal stripe on coxa, base of trochanter, base, and anterior and posterior subdistal marks on femur, basal and distal part of tibia, and distal part of tarsi, brown. Wings hyaline, pterostigma blackish brown. Male: Unknown. Etymology.
