Scutellum with faint brownish pollinosity, two bristle-like hairs. Dorsocentral hairs uncertain. Halter: knob and basal half of the stem black, yellow distally.
Legs. Trochanters and base of femora dark brown, femora black (f3 shining posteroventrally), knees yellowish brown, tibiae black (yellow at tip). Tarsal segments yellow-brown, last segment darker. Ventroapical row of 6–7 strong, short spines on first four femora (first four legs missing on HT); 4–5 weak hairs on 3rd femur. Subapical (distal) spines on first four tibiae present. One bristle-like anteromedial hair on 3rd tibia. Hind trochanter greyish pollinose with 3–4 fine pale hairs on ventral side. Pulvilli slightly longer than last tarsal segment.
Wing. Fourth costal section 0.5 times as long as third costal section. Cross-vein R-M beyond 1/3 of discal cell. Pterostigma almost fully coloured. 2–3 hairs on tegula.
Abdomen (most parts dissected)
. Hairs dispersed, short and weakly developed. Lateral spines on first tergite: 1 dark brown bristle. Postabdomen in dorsal view: (T6, S7, EP) visible.
Genitalia. Surstyli subsymmetrical; ST8 slightly enlarged, m.a. wide, slit-like (
Fig. 9H
). SES borders not clear, with 12–14 little spines; gonopods symmetric, with 1–2 minute hairs on each side (
Fig. 9L
); phallic guide pointed, with 2 spines; phallus longer than SS, curved (
