Frontogenal sutures extending onto crown and attaining ocelli. Ocelli located on imaginary line between anterior eye angles; each equidistant from adjacent eye angle and median line of crown. Antennal ledges protuberant in dorsal aspect; dorsally carinate and with anterior margin slightly oblique in lateral view. Frons flattened medially and depressed; median area mostly smooth or slightly striated; muscle impressions distinct; pubescent. Epistomal suture incomplete for short median distance. Clypeus continuing profile of frons; apical margin convex; pubescent. Prothorax with dorsopleural carinae complete. Pronotum narrower than transocular width; lateral margins parallel to slightly divergent anteriorly; median length approximately three­fifths transhumeral width; disc rugose, punctate, and pubescent; posterior margin broadly concave. Mesothorax with katepisternum enlarged and inflated; scutellum not striate. Forewings hyaline, except for small sclerotized area on costal region covering apex of outer discal and base of outer anteapical cells; veins distinct and elevated; anteapical cells closed; with four apical cells, base of third more apical than those of second or fourth; without supernumerary crossveins; claval veins fused at midlength for distance shorter than longest free branch.
