Supplementary description
Female. Metope wide, convex, glossy ( Figure 2C View Figure 2 ), with no intermediate carinae ( Figures 1A,B View Figure 1 , 3A View Figure 3 ). Lateral margins (keels) of metope distinct over whole length ( Figures 1B View Figure 1 , 2B View Figure 2 ), reaching metopoclypeal suture. Postclypeus large, with rather short bean-shaped projection (bulb) bearing thick median carina ( Figure 2C View Figure 2 ). Rostrum with very short and wide (not narrowing apically), third segment (second visible). Scapus short, cylindrical, with weakly convex externally apical margin. Pedicel cylindrical, with short rounded latero-apical process ( Figure 3D View Figure 3 ). Coryphe and metope joined at angle 160° – 170° (in lateral view) ( Figures 1B,C View Figure 1 , 2B, E View Figure 2 ). The border between metope and coryphe indistinct ( Figures 1A, C View Figure 1 , 2D, E View Figure 2 , 3A View Figure 3 ). Coryphe transverse, with very weak or even without median carina ( Figures 1A,C View Figure 1 , 2A,D View Figure 2 ). Anterior margin of coryphe smooth, weakly visible, posterior margin straight. Rostrum reaching apices of hind trochanters. Pronotum short and wide, transverse, with weak median carina; anterior and posterior margins straight. Paradiscal fields of pronotum very narrow – line-shaped behind the eyes. Paranotal lobes of pronotum wide, nearly triangular. Mesonotum twice as long as pronotum, without carinae. Forewings short, reaching only abdominal tergites II or III ( Figures 1B,D View Figure 1 , 2B View Figure 2 ), venation obscure, with weakly visible radius and median on common stem. Abdominal sternites III – VI with hind margins obtusely angulately concave. Abdominal sternite VII large, with hind margin convex bearing median concavity ( Figure 3B View Figure 3 ). Middle and hind femora slightly flattened laterally. Hind tibia with a single lateral spine medially and five apical spines. First and second metatarsomeres are nearly equal in length, with only two latero-apical spines each. Ventral surface of first metatarsomere covered by short and thick setae. Arolium of pretarsus almost reaching claw apices (in dorsal view), with convex margin.
Female genitalia. Anal tube wide ( Figure 3C View Figure 3 ). Gonoplacs short and flat. Anal column (epiproct) short.
