Redescription Female (holotype) LENGTH. Body 2.0 mm, fore wing 2.3 mm, hind wing 1.6 mm. HEAD.

Face 1.2 times as wide as high. Clypeus 2.5 times as wide as high. Mandible 1.7 times as long as its maximum width. Upper tooth wide; middle tooth rather narrow and long; lower tooth wide. Antennae 22-segmented. First flagellar segment 4.5 times as long as its apical width; 2 nd segment 5.8 times and 3 rd segment 3.3 times as long as their maximum width. MESOSOMA. In lateral view 1.4 times as long as high. Mesoscutum (in dorsal view) 1.2 times as long as its maximum width. Notauli mainly absent on horizontal surface of mesoscutum. Mesoscutal pit present, oval. Prescutellar depression smooth, with only median carina, 1.3 times as long as its maximum width. Precoxal sulcus present, crenulate, reaching anterior and posterior margins of mesopleuron. Posterior mesopleural furrow smooth. Propodeum weakly and sparsely sculptured, with several smooth patches, with large, narrow and mainly smooth pentagonal areola; basolateral areas smooth, sparsely rugose along carinae. Propodeal spiracle small, its diameter 0.3 times distance from spiracle to anterior margin of propodeum. WINGS. Marginal cell ending at apex of wing, 3.3 times as long as its maximum width. Vein r shorter than pterostigma width. Vein 3-SR 7.1 times as long as vein r and 1.8 times as long as vein 2-SR. Vein SR1 1.7 times as long as vein 3-SR. LEGS. Hind femur 5.0 times as long as its maximum width. METASOMA. First tergite widened towards apex, 1.5 times as long as its apical width, weakly striate. Visible part of ovipositor sheath 0.9 times as long as 1 st tergite, 0.2 times as long as metasoma and 0.5 times as long as hind femur. COLOUR. Body, antennae (except apically), mandible and pterostigma dark brown. Legs and last seven flagellar segments yellow. Head and mesoscutum in dorsal view similarly coloured. First metasomal tergite paler than 2 nd and 3 rd tergites. Wings hyaline. Male Unknown. Comparative diagnosis This species is similar to A. harrinsmithensis sp. nov.; the differences between both species are described under the latter species. Distribution Madagascar (Yu et al. 2016).
