Ocelli arranged in triangle with base 1.2 times its sides. Face above clypeus with 2 distinct short depressions. Clypeus convex. Malar suture absent. Occipital carina wide, as wide as hypostomal flange. First flagellar segment almost as long as second segment. Antennae contrasting yellow apically. Pronotal keel high and coarse. Prepectal carina ventrally without lobes. Postpectal carina absent. Notauli complete, wide, and crenulate. Propodeum with indistinctly marginate basolateral areas, with distinct wide obtuse lateral tubercles. Wings weakly shortened. Radial vein arising behind middle of pterostigma. Reccurent vein strongly antefurcal. Brachial cell closed distally distinctly before recurrent vein. Parallel vein interstitial. In hind wing, first mediocubital abscissa 0.7 times as long as second abscissa. Hind coxa with distinct basoventral tooth. Hind femur with very low dorsal protuberance. Hind basitarsus 0.75 times as long as second-fifth segments combined. Metasoma with 5 visible tergites. First tergite strongly constricted basally. Second tergite with very shallow and narrow transverse depression in posterior 0.25, which is separated by narrow transverse apical area. Fourth tergite with deep subbasal transverse furrow. Fifth tergite enlarged, weakly rounded posteriorly, longer than fourth tergite [1].

The new subgenus differs from all the species of Rhaconotus in having recurrent vein of fore wing distinctly antefurcal, the apical antennal segments pale and the lateral tubercles of propodeum distinct [1].
