Priesner, 1933: 347
The female labelled “
Type
” has been examined, and this was collected from a leaf gall on
Polygonum chinense
at Tjibodas,
Java
,
2.vii.1920
. It is a larger insect than
H. certus
, but it shares several character states with that species, including the position of the maxillary stylets in the head, the hooked fore tarsal tooth, the dark hind tarsi, and long slender sub-basal seta S3 on the fore wing. However, the major pronotal setae are much longer with apices less obviously capitate than in
certus
.
