Antenna yellow with pedicel brown and apical segments slightly darkened. Fore wing hyaline. Legs yellow, coxae and femora slightly darkened.
Morphology: stemmaticum with rugosely strigose surface sculpture ( Figure 49 View Figures 47–50 ). Antennal formula 1,1,4,2. Pedicel longer than F1 (1.17–1.30). F1 2.00–2.30 times as long as its maximum width, shorter than F2 (0.75–0.88) and F3 (0.63–0.79). Flagellomeres with the following numbers of sensilla: F1: 0, F2: 2, F3: 2, F4: 2–3, F5: 2–3, F6: 3. Midlobe of mesoscutum with eight setae, side lobes with three setae each. Scutellar sensilla widely separated (approximately six to seven times the maximum width of a sensillum). Distance between anterior pair of scutellar setae greater than between posterior pair. Fore wing 2.5–2.7 times as long as width of disc. Marginal fringe 0.30–0.36 times as long as width of disc. Submarginal vein with two setae, marginal vein anteriorly with seven or eight setae. Tarsal formula 5-5-5. Apical spur of midtibia shorter than half the length of the corresponding basitarsus (0.30–0.44). Tergites laterally with the following numbers of setae: T1: 0–2(–4), T2: 1–2(–3), T3: 1–2, T4: 1–2, T5: 2–3, T6: 3, T7 with 4(–5) setae.
