Description.
Size.
Length of pronotum in male 1.86–2.11, in
holotype
2.05 mm
(mean
1.99 mm
), in female 3.8–4.0 mm (mean
3.88 mm
); N 11/4.
Structures.
Male.
Tegmina very similar to the preceding species, separated by about half of their breadth, asymmetrically oval, broadest in the middle of their length (
Figs. 11D, E, H
); T7 gland completely missing (
Fig. 11C
).
Female.
Tegmina rounded triangular as in the preceding species (
Figs. 11F, G
).
Colouration.
Male
(
Figs. 11
A–D, H).Very similar to the two preceding species, but T7 (
Fig. 11C
) without the lightly coloured transversal band present in the other species posteriorly of the glandular pouch (
Fig. 10
C–F). In one male from locality Ma 214 the usually uniformly dark areas were broken up into a pattern of dark markings on a lighter coloured background (
Figs. 11E, K
); since the rermaining eight males from the same locality had the usual dark colouration the case is counted as an aberration.
Female.
Discs of the thoracal nota often with rather large dark markings (
Figs.
11I
, J
).
