Diagnosis. Distinguished by anterior lobe of pronotum only slightly raised; posterior lobe almost entirely dark, without longitudinal, yellow stripe ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 A–B); endosomal sclerite slender, not widened medially ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 A, B).

Redescription. Male. COLORATION ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 A–B). Head. Dark brownish, sometimes slightly yellowish on vertex and gula; antennal segment I dull yellowish, slightly tinged with red apically, sometimes with longitudinal, reddish stripes beyond medial part; segment II (except for apex) brownish; rostrum dull yellowish; labial segment I often reddish, slightly darker than segments II and III. Thorax. Pronotum. Anterior lobe ranging from yellow, sometimes with dark, round stripes medially to almost entirely dark brownish; posterior lobe dark brown, rarely with hardly visible, yellowish, longitudinal stripe medially, always with yellow stripe along posterior margin. Mesoscutum and scutellum. Mesoscutum almost entirely black; scutellum often tinged with red laterally, black patch on scutellum longitudinal, distinctly widened apically. Hemelytron. Cuneus yellow sometimes tinged with red, cuneus rarely entirely red; membrane often with yellowish stripe bordering major cell medially. Thoracic pleura. Propleuron dark brown, sometimes slightly tinged with red, posterior margin with yellow stripe along its length; mesepimeron black with yellow stripe posteriorly; metepisternum black with distinct, yellowish orange, rarely reddish, longitudinal stripe near anterior margin of metepisternum; scent-gland evaporatory areas and peritreme yellow. Legs. Fore- and mesofemora slightly tinged with red from medial part to apex; metafemur more strongly tinged with red. Abdomen. Usually entirely dark brown to black, sometimes yellowish apically and ventrally. STRUCTURE AND VESTITURE ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 A–B, 7F–H). Thorax. Pronotum. Anterior lobe relatively flat, incarinate laterally; posterior lobe without any longitudinal swelling medially.

Male genitalia ( Figs. 8 View FIGURE 8 A–D). Endosomal sclerite slender.

Female. Similar to male, but larger.

Length of segment I 0.95– 1.12/1.1, II 2.0–2.24/2.1, III 3.19–3.62/3.48, IV (Ψ) 3.6. Labium. Length of segment (Ψ) I 0.94–1.0/0.88, II (Ψ) 1.16–1.22, III (Ψ) 1.4–1.44, IV 0.46–0.5/0.48. Pronotum. Length 0.97–1.05/0.72–0.82, width of anterior margin 0.82–0.84/0.62–0.67, length of lateral margin 0.9–1.1/0.76–0.82, width of posterior margin 1.7–1.8/ 1.35.
