What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

description · Plazi

This holarctic genus includes about 70 species of which 10 occur in North Europe. Head oval, clypeus rounded, frontal lobes prominent; alitrunk with pronotum rounded antero-laterally, a well defined mesopropodeal furrow and, in most species, strongly developed propodeal spines. Pedicel with two large nodes - the petiole with a stout antero-ventral tooth and the postpetiole which, rubbed against the fine transverse striae on the first gaster segment, gives an audible stridulation. All tibial spurs are distinctly pectinate except in a very few semi-parasitic species. Gaster in female castes armed with a strong sting. Fore-wing in male and queen have the cubital cell characteristically partially divided by a transverse vein. Palp formula 6, 4; antennae 12 segmented in female caste, 13 in male.
