Abdomen: In ventral view, basal half yellow-brown, lateral lobes of sternite 5 yellow, remaining black-brown, with gray-white pruinosity. Long-oviform in dorsal view, longer than thorax, back half wider in lateral view, without median vitta, tergites 3–5 each with 1 pair of black-brown rounded lateral spots (spots of tergite 3 faint), spot width about 2/5 of tergite length respectively. Tergite 5 with 4 discal and 4 marginal setae. Tergite 8 with 2 setae. Aedeagus thick and strong, curving forward.
Female: Unknown.
Etymology: The species name is from the Greek words
