Measurement.

(male),
3.50 mm
(female); including forewing
4.60 mm
(male),
5.80 mm
(female); tegmen length
4.10 mm

Coloration
. General color reddish brown to yellowish brown. Median line of frons, vertex, pro- and mesonotum, commissural suture whitish yellow. Areas between carinae of frons somewhat dark brown. Abdomen somewhat whitish yellow to reddish yellow. Pygofer yellow.
Head and Thorax
. Vertex wider submedially than long at base about 1.1:1, apical margin transverse, lateral carinae nearly straight, submedian carinae not really uniting at apex, basal compartment width at base equal to greatest length. Frons longer in middle line than wide at widest part about 2.4:1, widest at apex, median carina simple. Post-clypeus wider at base than frons at apex, very long, longer than half of frons. Antennae reaching over frontoclypeal suture, basal segment longer than wide, shorter than second about 1:2.2. Post-tibial spur with 23–24 teeth. Tegmina longer than widest part about 3.1:1.
Male Genitalia
. Anal segment of male with lateroapical angles widely separated, each produced in a stout spinose process, abruptly narrowing near middle, blunt at apex. Pygofer in profile distinctly wider ventrally than dorsally, at caudal margin strongly produced caudodorsad in a large lobe, slightly twisted near apex, sinuated at apical margin, in caudodorsal view opening longer than width, in ventral medioventral process obsolete, very wide, apical margin slightly concave medially. Phallus somewhat compressed, almost quadrate at base, forking at apex, upper one process slender, longer, directed caudad, lower one process Y-shaped, furcal, common petiole, directed caudodorsad. Diaphragm dorsal margin with a large node protruding cephalad to supporting phallus, ventral margin with a thumb-like process directed caudad. Genital styles very long, slender, sinuate, divergent apically, basal quadrate, abruptly narrowing at basal 1/3, laterobasal angle with moderate, spine-like process, distinct at lateral view.
