Antenna slender, 1.3 times longer than head and thorax together (13: 10), 1.2 times longer than abdomen (13: 11); antennomere 2 as long as breadth, antennomere 3, 1.4 times as long as antennomere 4 (10: 7), 0.8 times as long as antennomeres 4 and 5 together (3: 4), middle antennomeres slightly inflated, subapical antennomeres weakly compressed (Fig. 12). Mesoscutellum roundly elevated, without carina or peak, as high as top of mesonotum in lateral view; metascutellum with lower middle carina; dorsal-posterior platform of mesepimeron 0.8 times as broad as diameter of middle ocellus; metepimeron without appendage; distance between cenchri 2 times breadth of a cenchrus; mesopleuron and metapleuron as shown in Fig. 13. Inner tibial spur of hind leg about 0.6 times length of hind tarsomere 1 (16: 25); hind tarsomere 1 slender, 1.2 times longer than following 4 tarsomeres together (25: 21); claw with inner tooth shorter than outer tooth. Ovipositor sheath clearly shorter than hind tarsomere 1 (19: 25), apical sheath slightly shorter than basal sheath, apical margin roundish in lateral view (Fig. 14). Fore wing with crossvein cu-a joining cell 1M at basal 1/3, crossvein 2r joining cell 2Rs at apical 1/4, cell 2Rs slightly longer than cell 1Rs, anal cell with a long petiole, 2 times longer than crossvein 1r-m; petiole of anal cell in hind wing about 1/3 times longer than crossvein cu-a. Lancet with 21 serrulae (Fig. 15), lancet slightly long and narrow, middle serrulae not protruding and each with 1–2 proximal and 4–5 distal teeth, subbasal teeth large, annular spine bands slightly broad, 8th–10th serrulae at basal as shown in Fig. 16.

Male. Unknown.

Holotype ♀, China, Hunan, Shimen County, Mt. Huping, Shinianzigou (30°01′N, 110°33′E; elev. 710 m), 1–3 June 2011, CSCS11040, leg. Chaoyang Zhu.

Distribution. China (Hunan).

Etymology. This new species is named after Mr. Chaoyang Zhu, who collected the holotype of the new species.

Remarks. The new species is similar to M. quadriclypeata Wei & Nie, 2002, it is can be distinguished from other species based on the above key.
