Mesopleuron sparsely hairy, but tomentum dense ventrally as well as between two sparsely hairy patches (one beneath base of fore wing (hypoepimeral area), a larger circular patch occupying much of ventrolateral half of mesopleuron). Metanotum with tomentum uninterrupted except for median bare patch in posterior half, uniformly off white. T1 with discal patch quadrangular and very wide, the basal and apical fasciae only narrowly joined laterally. T1 with basal and apical fasciae and T2-T4 with apical fasciae widely separated medially, the apical fasciae reduced to pairs of small patches somewhat broader laterally; T2 with fascia without anterolateral extensions of tomentum, although few sparsely scattered pale hairs present. Remaining metasomal terga mostly hidden in holotype, but T5 and T6 with complete or narrowly interrupted fasciae in non-type specimens.

Mesoscutellum moderately bigibbous.
