Length of body 6.0 mm, of fore wing 5.5 mm and of antenna 7.0 mm. Antenna with 48 flagellomeres. Terminal flagellomere acuminate. Median flagellomeres approximately 2 x longer than wide. Occipital carina complete forming a squared lobe medio-dorsally, ventrally joining hypostomal carina. Mesopleuron largely aciculate, coarsely rugose anteriorly, precoxal sulcus weakly impressed somewhat rugose, specular area with reduced aciculate sculpture but no true speculum.
