Diagnosis
Arista pubescent; scutum with one broad transverse band; postpronotum white; scutellum white; anatergite and katatergite completely white; legs yellow with femora dark; wing, anterior apical band complete, with subapical tooth into cell r 4+5, touching discal band, posterior apical band absent, discal band reaching posterior margin; abdomen mainly shining black-brown.
Description
Head. Antennal segments dark brown. Arista pubescent, longest rays at most twice the width of base of arista. Frons ventral half yellow-white, dorsal part with transverse brown band along width of orbital setae, area above posterior orbital till occiput yellow-white. Two frontals, placed parallel to medial eye margin; two orbitals, placed slightly convergent with anterior orbital located more medially. Face white, dorsal third dark brown, median part sometimes with two brown patches or transverse band. Occiput black-brown, only margins white.
Thorax. Scutum shining black-brown, more yellowish brown near transverse suture; dark dispersed pilosity, one broad transverse band with silvery pilosity and microtrichosity, anteriorly of transverse suture. Postpronotum white. Anepisternum brown, with white band occupying posterodorsal part, its ventral margin reaching posteroventral corner or almost so; with pale pilosity except in posteroventral corner with few dark setulae; one anepisternal seta. Anatergite and katatergite white. Scutellum white. Subscutellum brown. Legs pale yellow, femora and anterior fifth of hind tibiae black-brown.
Wing ( Figure 1C View Figure 1 ). Wing bands brown, largely reduced. No basal spots or streaks, except for subbasal band. Anterior apical band covering cell r 1 completely except for hyaline spot in apex of cell; covering cell r 2+3 only partially; with subapical tooth into cell r 4+5. Posterior apical band absent. Area between subbasal band and discal band hyaline. Discal band and anterior apical band united at pterostigma. Discal band reaching posterior wing margin. R-M ratio 0.48–0.55.
Abdomen. Shining black-brown, posterior margin of tergite 2 with narrow greyish band, tergite 5 with small yellow patch posteromedially.
Female. As male, except for the following characters: pubescence of arista slightly longer; mid and hind tibiae dark on anterior 1/2 or 2/3. Female terminalia, oviscape about two-thirds of length of abdominal tergites, shining black-brown, with black pilosity. Aculeus ( Figure 3A View Figure 3 ) orange, flattened, about seven times as long as broad, apex ( Figure 4A View Figure 4 ) strongly narrowed, pointed tip.
Body length. 3.20–4.80 mm; wing length 3.25–4.45 mm.
