Scutellum slightly silvery, with 6–7 pairs of weakly developed hairs. Dorsocentral hairs weakly developed. Halter brown, middle of stem yellow. Legs. Trochanters and base of femora yellow-brown, femora brown, shining ventrally, f3 posteriorly as well. Knees, tibiae and tarsal segments yellow, last segment brown. Ventroapical row of 7–8 black, short spines on first four femora; 5–6 spines on 3rd femur (same size). Subapical (distal) spines on first four tibiae missing. 2–3 erect anteromedial hairs on 3rd tibia. Hind trochanter with 2 brown hairs on ventral side (as long as width of f3 at base). Pulvilli distinctly shorter than last tarsal segment. Wing. Cross-vein R-M at 1/3 of discal cell. Pterostigma fully coloured. Hairs on tegula missing. Abdomen . Viewed obliquely from front tergites brownish pollinose (T1 silvery), hind margins with small grey triangles laterally (almost reaching each other on T5), sides completely greyish pollinose.

Genitalia without dissection: ST8 subshining brown, cerci yellowish, m.a. round, pv directed, occupies 2/3 of width of ST8. Genitalia. Surstyli symmetric, rounded at tip; epandrium small; ST8 with large m.a. ( Fig. 11B ).
