Description. Generally brightly colored, with yellow, red or orange patterns on dorsum. Body length including wings about 2.5–3.5mm. Head with prominent coronal suture; crown conically produced medially; face generally convex. Pronotum apparently wider than head including eye. Scutellum nearly triangular, small; scutellar suture prominent. Forewing usually narrow, with numerous dark spots scattered variably; 2nd apical cell longest; 3rd apical cell triangular, with petiolate at base. Hindwing with submarginal vein joining with Cu1 near to mcu1. Abdominal apodeme with posterior lobes generally well developed, variable in length, often exceeding 4th sternite.

Male genitalia. Pygofer with long processes arising from caudoventral margin, broadened subapically and directed dorsally, with several thin microsetae on lateral surface. Subgenital plate widened basally, distinctly sharper near apex, with 1–2 or row of long macrosetae subbasally. Style with preapical tooth on inner margin; apex footlike, usually with few short microsetae medially. Aedeagus variable, with or without basal processes, differing among species in position and shape if present; shaft with or without apical processes. Connective with long or short stem, with short lateral arms.
