♀. — Length about 8 mm., black, with distinct narrow white hairbands on abdomen. Middle of anterior margin of clypeus curved upwards, presenting a point from which the sides slope gently for some distance, and then abruptly nearly vertically, the whole, seen from beneath, having about the outline of a low house seen from one end; some distance on each side of this structure is a low projection of the margin. In general, the insect looks just like Ashmeadiella bucconis, but the second tooth of the mandibles is short, and the front and vertex are as densely punctured as it is possible for them to be. The last joint of the labial palpus is conspicuously longer than the penultimate one.
