Diagnosis
. Recognized by the following combination of characters: antennal segment II with relatively broad, apical, white annulation width equal to half of interocular distance (
Fig. 6b
;
Gorczyca 2006a
: fig. 3); posterior lobe of pronotum with moderately developed swelling medially (

,
11m
;
Gorczyca 2006a
: fig. 3); scutellum convex, with strongly developed, longitudinal medial swelling (

;
Gorczyca 2006a
: fig. 3); clavus with short, yellow stripe subapically (
Fig. 6b
;
Gorczyca 2006a
: fig. 3); endosoma membranous (
Figs 14f–k
); distal sclerotized portion of ductus seminis (dss) short, rectangular (
Figs 14f
); ventro–apical margin of ductus seminis inside endosoma with shallow incision (
Fig. 14h
); left paramere apical process with short outgrowth baso-dorsally (

COLORATION
(
Fig. 6b

Head
. Dark brown, tinged with yellow; antennal segment I dark castaneous; antennal segment II with relatively broad, apical, white annulation that is as wide as half of interocular distance; segments II–IV dark brown; labium dark castaneous.
Thorax

Pronotum
. Varying from dark castaneous to dark brown.
Mesoscutum and scutellum
. Varying from dark castaneous to dark brown with large, indistinct, dark yellow tinge baso-laterally.
Thoracic pleura
. Dark castaneous with dark yellow areas; metathoracic scent gland evaporative areas mostly fuscous, tinged with yellow posteriorly.
Hemelytron
. Dark castaneous to dark brown; clavus with short, yellow stripe subapically, bordering claval suture; membrane dark grey, weakly tinged with yellow medially.
Legs

Procoxa dark castaneous narrowly tinged with yellow apically; meso- and metacoxae yellow tinged with dark brown basally; femora dark castaneous with pale yellow annulation subapically; meso- and metafemora with pale yellow annulation basally; tibiae and tarsi dark stramineous with dark brown areas.
Abdomen
. Dark castaneous.
