D i a g n o s i s. This species can be recognized from the combination of head slightly longer and wider than high, face with conspicuous carina; parafacial in profile as wide as flagellomere 1 ( fig. 1 View Fig , 3 View Fig , 4 View Fig ); mesonotum and abdomen reddish yellow with a few black spots; scutellum with three to four pairs of long setae ( fig. 1, 1 View Fig ); wing almost uniformly hyaline with yellow veins, without spots or bands ( fig. 1, 1 View Fig ); fore coxa with cluster of setulae extending from round depression ( fig. 1 View Fig , 5 View Fig ); fore femur with numerous long and thin setae, mid femur with very large femoral organ on middle two-thirds of femur; setae in ventro-apical rows thin and non-spurious; abdominal sternites with long suberect setae at posterior margins; ventral hooks on oviscape strong; all setae and setulae golden yellow. The presence of more than two scutellar setae and the strong hooks of the oviscape support its placement in Eupyrgota s. str.
