Diagnosis. In both sexes, body primarily black. In females, narrow stripe along inner orbit, apical marginal part of clypeus, inner side of foreleg partially and stripes on T1-2 light yellow to yellow. F1 5.2-5.9 times as long as broad.

In males, inner orbit, supraclypeal area, clypeus, labrum, palpal segments, mandible except for apical part, genal stripe along outer orbit, anterior lower part of lateral face of pronotum, transverse stripe before transparent apical lamina of pronotal dorsum, fore and mid coxae light yellow, and paired spots or stripes on T3 basally; under side of antennal flagellomeres and fore and mid legs largely yellowish brown.

Remarks. Lelej et al. (1994) commented that the basal light spot on T 2-3 in a male was unusual. However, all the specimens examined herein have basal paired spots or stripe on T3 and also sometimes spots on T2.
