Female (n = 3). Body length 8.3–8.9 mm, covered with punctures and silvery setae. Head 0.65 × as long as wide, matt with fine and dense punctures. Clypeus 2.0 × as broad as high, sparsely punctate ventrally, convex in lateral view. Face 1.6–1.7 × as broad as high, weakly convex medially in lateral view. Punctures on gena weaker and sparser than other parts of head. Malar space 0.5–0.6 × as long as basal mandibular width. POL 1.1–1.3 × as long as OD. OOL 1.2 × as long as OD. Gena slightly convex in dorsal view. Lower end of occipital carina joined to hypostomal carina distant to mandibular base.Antenna with 35 flagellomeres. FL I 5.0–5.7 × as long as maximum depth and 1.5–1.55 × as long as FL II. All segments of flagellum longer than maximum width; preapical flagellomeres elongate, ca. 1.8–2.0 times as long as wide. Mesosoma densely punctate, ISP matt. Speculum with small smooth area (Fig. 4F). Propodeum with pleural carina and posterior transverse carina; posterior transverse carina usually partly obscure. Fore wing length 6.5–6.75 mm. Junction of vein Cu1 and vein Cu-a slightly distant to junction of veins Rs+M and M+Cu (Fig. 4G). Areolet small, pointed anteriorly; its length and width not significantly different; received vein 2m-cu slightly distant of the outer angle (Fig. 4G). Nervellus intercepted at middle. Hind femur 6.7–6.9 × as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Hind tibia with a few robust and large setae. Ratio of length of hind first to fifth tarsomeres 4.4: 2.0: 1.4: 0.75: 0.75. Tarsal claws pectinate basally (only with a few, minute teeth; apparently simple in some specimens), simple apically, strongly bent (Fig. 1I). Metasoma polished. T I 1.7–1.9 × as long as maximum width, coriaceous, longitudinally rugose laterally, transversely and finely striated medially; with smooth area along posterior margin (Fig. 4I). T II 0.9–1.0 × as long as maximum width. T II to T V coriaceous (weak on each posterior margin). Ovipositor sheath 0.5–0.55 times as long as hind tibia. Coloration (Figs 4A–I). Body (excluding wings and legs) black. Lower half of clypeus yellowish-brown. Mandible with large red area medially. Flagellum reddish-brown. Palpi blackish-brown. Each posterior margin of metasomal tergites narrowly tinged with reddish-brown to red except for posterior margins of T I, T II, and sometimes also T III each with broad red band. Membranous part of metasomal sternites yellowish-brown. Ovipositor reddish brown. Wings hyaline with slight yellow tinge. Veins and pterostigma blackish-brown to brown except for yellow wing base. Legs black to blackish-brown. Coloration of mid and hind coxae largely changed intraspecifically, red, reddish-brown or entirely black (Figs 4A, B). Fore femur, tibia, and tarsus partly tinged with yellowish-brown (fore tibia sometimes entirely yellowish-brown). Male. Japanese material not available in this study. Distribution. Japan (Hokkaido). Outside Japan, this species has been recorded from Russia (Yu et al. 2016). Bionomics. Host unknown. Adults were collected in July and September. Remarks.
