Head subcubical; ocellar triangle with base larger than its sides; eyes glabrous; occipital carina present, reduced ventrally and not fused with hypostomal carina; postgenal bridge narrow; palpi formula 6-4; scape wide and short, without apical lobe; first flagellar segment almost straight, not shorter than second segment; neck of promesosoma short, partly convex dorsally; pronotal keel present; anterior surface of mesonotum subvertical or curving posteriorly, only slightly raised above pronotum; notauli present, shallow posteriorly; sternaulus distinct, long and straight; prepectal carina present; propodeum without marginated areas; lateral tubercles and propodeal bridge absent; fore tibia without spines or with very short spines; hind coxa with basoventral corner and small tooth; hind tibia without spines along dorsal surface; hind basitarsus 0.55-0.7 times as long as segments 2-5 combined; fore wing marginal cell not shortened; 2RS and r-m present; 1m-cu slightly postfurcal; 1cu-a postfurcal; 3CU not interstitial, arising from posterior 1/5 of distal margin of first subdiscal cell; first subdiscal cell closed; hind wing cu-a present; subbasal cell very short; m-cu present, oblique toward base of wing; basal cell wide apically; RS arising from R; marginal cell without r; in male hind wing without stigma-like enlargement; first metasomal tergite not petiolate, usually wide and long, usually with distinct dorsope, rarely dorsope absent; acrosternite usually about 0.2 times as long as tergite; second suture present, straight, angularly or roundly curved; second tergite with distinct narrow strongly convergent furrows, fused usually before middle of second suture, forming a triangular area; ovipositor distinctly longer than metasoma [1].

It differs from Rasnitsynoryctes in having furrow of second metasomal tergite strongly converging and independently fused to the second suture (weakly converging and independently fused to the second suture in Rasnitsynoryctes), second suture with more or less distinct single medial break (with two distinct lateral breaks in Rasnitsynoryctes), fore tibia usually without spines, or sometimes with very small spines (with coarse and sparse spines in Rasnitsynoryctes), inner spur of hind tibia simple in its inner apical third (with distinct expansion in its inner apical third in Rasnitsynoryctes), discoidal cell anteriorly petiolate (anteriorly sessile in Rasnitsynoryctes), and the apical tergites with single subapical lines of setae (almost entirely and densely setose tergites in apical half of metasoma in Rasnitsynoryctes) [1].
