Sabinita
Head not depressed, transverse; ocelli arranged in triangle with base larger than its sides; frons with distinct and wide excavation running from lateral ocelli, with distinct, thick and not high median longitudinal keel, with lateral protuberances emarginated dorsally by distinct longitudinal carina; eyes with sparse and short setae; occipital carina complete, fused with hypostomal carina; postgenal bridge wide; palpi formula 6-4; scape of antenna wide and short, with a flange apically and with a short ventroapical lobe, without basal constriction; first flagellar segment subcylindrical, slightly curved, slightly longer than second segment; mesosoma short; neck of prothorax short, slightly convex dorsally (lateral view), with short anterior flange curved up; pronotal carina almost indistinct; mesonotum highly and almost perpendicularly elevated above pronotum, mostly granulate; median lobe of mesonotum with wide and obtuse anterolateral corners; notauli complete, deep, and wide; scutellum slightly convex, longer than wide, with lateral carinae; sternaulus deep, wide, short, straight and oblique; prepectal carina distinct and complete, high ventrally, laterally reaching lower margin of subalar depression; propodeum with areas delineated by distinct carinae, lateral tubercles present, distinct, short and wide; propodeal bridge absent; fore tibia with several long and slender spines arranged in a single vertical line; middle tibia with spines on anterior surface; hind coxa short and wide, with distinct basoventral angle and without distinct tubercle; fore and middle femora without dorsal protuberances; hind tibia with a comb of dense setae along its inner distal margin; hind basitarsus 0.4–0.45 times as long as second–fifth segments combined; vein r arising from middle of pterostigma; marginal cell slightly shortened; veins 2RS and r-m present; 1m-cu usually distinctly postfurcal; 1cu-a distinctly postfurcal; first discal cell petiolate anteriorly; first subdiscal cell open postero-apically; veins 2cu-a, 1a and 2a completely absent; hind wing vein RS arising from R far from vein r-m; marginal cell slightly widened basally, then distinctly narrowed towards apex, without vein r; cu-a present; M+CU about as long as vein M; m-cu long, slightly oblique toward apex of wing, slightly curved; first tergite semi-petiolate, short, wide and distinctly convex; acrosternite 0.4–0.5 times as long as first tergite; basolateral lobes almost absent; first tergite on basal fifth with a high and coarse semi-circular transverse carina, with distinct, subparallel and almost complete dorsal carinae; second tergite without furrows and areas; second suture shallow, complete, slightly sinuate; third tergite with very shallow transverse submedian furrow separating a wide basal area; ovipositor without distinct nodes, distinctly shorter than metasoma [1].

It is morphologically similar to Allorhogas, but can be distinguished by the acrosternite of first metasomal segment distinctly elongated, 0.4–0.5× as long as the first tergite (0.25
or less in species of Allorhogas), the scape of antenna with distinct ventroapical lobe and length of its ventral margin (lateral view) equal or longer than dorsal one (without ventroapical lobe and its ventral margin shorter than dorsal one in Allorhogas), and the hind coxa without distinct basoventral tubercle (always present in Allorhogas) [1].
It is similar to Psenobolus, Ficobolus and Plesiopsenobulus It can be distinguished :
- from Ficobolus and Plesiopsenobolus by its first metasomal tergite short and wide; its acrosternite short, only 0.4–0.5× as long as first tergite; its scape of antenna with distinct ventroapical lobe; its length of ventral margin of scape (lateral view) not less than length of its dorsal margin; its vein 1m-cu of fore wing distinctly postfurcal; its propodeum with distinct and subpointed lateral tubercles, and its median keel of frontal cavity thick and obtuse dorsally [1].
-from Psenobolus by its prescutellar depression long, usually with sparse to few carinae; its scutellar disc subtriangular, its maximum width often equal to or less than its maximum length, 2.0–3.0× longer than prescutellar sulcus; its notauli usually wide, always complete, not reduced posteriorly and always connected with anterior margin of prescutellar sulcus; its propodeum always with areas and areola delineated by coarse carinae, mainly sculptured; its hind coxa with basoventral corner and by its association with galls on vegetative organs of Ficus species [1].
