The original description of the female apterae refers to “curved wing-retaining setae” on tergites II–VII, but examination of six specimens from the same series as the holotype suggests that this statement was probably a copying error. Some of the tergites have a small, weakly curved seta in the position that a wing-retaining seta would be expected, but this condition is variable amongst the available specimens. The male paratypes have a small transverse pore plate on the eighth sternite. The female from Queensland listed below cannot be distinguished from the New Zealand paratypes , but the two females from ACT have the median setae on tergites II–III longer, almost half as long as the median length of their tergite.
