Structures.
Head
.
Width of head ~ 1.07-1.26
x
as wide as median length of head, ~ 1.71-1.80 time as wide as interocular distance; antennomere I slightly shorter than antennomere II, ratio of antennomeres I:II:III:IV = 1:1.03:0.84:0.62; apex of labium surpassing posterior margin of mesocoxae, not reaching to anterior margin of metacoxae.
Pronotum
~ 1.43-1.60
x
as width across humeral angles as its median length; scutellum ~ 0.96-1.16
x
as long as its width. Anterior peritreme of metathoracic scent gland slightly larger than protruding posterior peritreme, gyrification of evaporatorium deep (Fig.
4C, D
).
Pregenital abdomen
.
Abdomen oblong, spiracles situated near lateral margin of abdominal sterna III-VII (segments III to VIII in female), before middle line of each segment; sternum VII of male strongly concave medially, length of concave part ~ 1/2 length of sternum VIII in ventral view; in female plica triangular, and partly exposed out of sternum VI, posterior margin of sternum VII sinuated.
External male genitalia
.
Genital capsule opening dorsally (Fig.
4E, F
), dorsoposterior rim wide, median projection conspicuous, triangular (Fig.
5D
: mdp), posterior margin of genital capsule broadly sinuate and ventroposterior process median (Fig.
5D
: mvp), lateral portion of posterior margin roundly produced on each side (Fig.
5D
); dorsal margin of base of paramere near straight, ventral region of base of paramere with triangular lobe (Fig.
5E-G
), distal portion sickle-shaped (Fig.
5E-G
); phallus with a sclerotized articulatory apparatus (Fig.
5A-C
), phallotheca barrel-shaped, unarmed (Fig.
5A-C
: phth), conjunctiva rigid and complex, with one pair of membranous processes and a pair of slender, triangular adjacent ventral conjunctival sclerites (Fig.
5B, C
: vcs), aedeagus coiled, strongly sclerotized, distal portion tubular, obliquely truncate apically (Fig.
5A-C
: aed).
External female genitalia
.
Laterotergite VIII subtriangular, with sinuate inner margin, spiracles nearer to basal margin than to lateral margin; laterotergites IX subtriangular, posterior portion of inner margin concave (Figs
6C
,
14D
). Valvifers VIII nearly triangular, posterior portion of outer margin slightly convex (Fig.
6C
: vf8); posterior distal portions of valvulae VIII with dense hair-like setae (Fig.
6C
: va8); valvifers IX slightly sclerotized (Fig.
6A
