by the following combination of characters in the male: the outer vertical seta is absent, whereas the inner vertical seta is tiny; the ocellar triangle is broad and fuzzy, with posterior ocellus within one ocellar diameter to the corresponding edge of the eye, the anterior ocellus is much smaller than a posterior ocellus and is closer to each posterior ocellus than the distance between posterior ocelli (forming an isosceles obtuse triangle); the dorsocentral vitta is distinct through its entire length from the anterior edge of the mesonotum, onto the prescutellum and to the scutellar suture; the mesonotum lacks any median vittae; the abdomen has paired brown pruinose spots on tergite 3 only, and median spots on tergites 3–5; in the genitalia lateral view, the surstylus is broad (sharp in dorsal view), and the phallus is long and gently curved ending at a bluntly rounded tip.

Sexually dimorphic in characteristics of the ocellar triangle and vertical setae, as follows. In male: ocellar triangle broad, nearly flattened dorsally, forming obtuse isosceles triangle with posterior ocelli farther apart than distance between either posterior ocellus and anterior ocellus, covered with fuzzy pale erect pilosity restricted to ocellar triangle, each posterior ocellus closer to edge of eye than one ocellar diameter; outer vertical seta absent, inner one tiny. In female: ocellar triangle broad, forming nearly equilateral triangle, each posterior ocellus within two ocellar diameters to edge of eye, setulose, with pair of distinct reclinate ocellar setae originating outside of ocellar triangle at level of anterior ocellus, sometimes with additional errant enlarged seta nearby; vertical setae present and strong, outer vertical seta stronger than inner. Frons slightly wider than high, height 1.5–1.9 X lunule height, tapering dorsally with width at level of anterior ocellus 0.6–0.8X width at level of antennal base, fronto-orbital area silvery pruinose, extending through parafacial, frontal vitta (central area between ocellar triangle and lunule) darker greyish pruinose; entirely setulose (setulae tiny in male, slightly stronger in female). Lunule similarly setulose, silvery pruinose, high arching, height 0.5–0.6 X width of lunule at antennal base; height 0.5–0.7 X height of frons from edge of lunule to anterior ocellus. Antenna entirely black; with gap between them wider than width of a single antennal base; area between antennal bases silvery grey pruinose, concolorous with lunule and face; 1st flagellomere short, rounded; arista with distal segment 4.0–4.5 X longer than basal. Face silvery grey pruinose; with shallow antennal grooves. Parafacial silvery grey pruinose, narrow, each about one-quarter width of face. Gena 0.1–0.2 X height of eye, with one strong genal seta in addition to several setulae in row behind and along eye margin. Clypeus silvery grey; small, narrow. Palpus black; spatulate; sparsely setulose. Prementum silvery grey. Labellum small, pale.

Sternite 2 transversely divided, with anterior portion being a small bare sclerite placed within anterior concavity of posterior portion; about half the width of posterior part; posterior part 3 X wider than long, deeply emarginate anteriorly, 1.6–1.7 X wider than sternite 3. Sternites 3 and 4 subequal in size, each as wide as long, slightly tapering posteriorly. Sternite 5 slightly wider than sternites 3 and 4, and slightly longer than wide. Sternites 2–5 setulose in posterior two-thirds (except anterior portion of sternite 2 bare), with longest setulae laterally. Sternites 3–5 with sockets of tiny sensory setae in each anterolateral corner.
