species, no wider than the diameter of the anterior ocellus, lateral ocellus almost touching the eye margin. Ocellar tubercle shining black, frons at narrowest point dull but still black, anterior part of frons entirely pale grey dusted obscuring dark ground colour. Occiput black, shining, undusted on a narrow band behind upper eye margin, otherwise with a thin covering of pale dust that does not obscure ground colour, triangular area behind vertex more thinly dusted. Ommatidia all of uniform size. Hairing moderate length, on ocellar area about as long or a little longer than width of vertex level with lateral ocelli, frons glabrous. Antennae black, third segment longer than the scape and pedicel together, all segments with very short setae above, sensilla small, brown or pale. Proboscis black, hairless, about as long as the head and thorax together; palps very short and thin, black to brown with short pale hairs apically;.

. Mesonotum and scutellum shining black except anterior slope of between paramedian lines post pronotal lobes, dorsum of post pronotal lobes, most of notopleuron and above wings which is grey dusted. Disc shining except for relatively simple punctures, many separated by areas of smooth cuticle greater than diameter of a puncture. Bare paramedian lines relatively conspicuous, extending back to beyond the mid point of the mesonotum, each about as broad as the midline which has 56 lines of hairs. Pleurae with a covering of grey dust sufficiently dense to obscure the black ground colour. Mesonotum and scutellum covered with mid-length pale yellowish white hair, that on the disc of the mesonotum about as long as the width of the vertex at the lateral ocelli. Pronotum and posterior edge of anepisternum with a scattering of white hairs.

. Shining aeneous black, the disc of the tergites covered with short, whitish hairs, the hairs arising from transverse welts forming a rugose surface sculpture. Laterally and on the down-curved margins the tergites are clothed with rather longer, whitish hairs. Sternites grey dusted with whitish hairs confined to the posterior margin.

Posterior half of frons shining black, parallel sided, about four times the diameter of the anterior ocellus and as wide or wider than the length of the longest hairs on the ocellar tubercle, a few tiny, proclinate hairs close to eyes forward of anterior ocellus. Anterior half of frons widening rather abruptly, more than lateral third each side covered in dense whitish dust obscuring ground colour, central shining black strip narrower than dusted areas. Third antennal segment sometimes shorter. Anal lobe broader, margin more convex, almost as broad as the anal cell. Abdomen conical tapering to a rounded point, apical sternite evenly convex, wider than long, apical emargination small and shallow, in dry specimen a square spot of pale dust discernable apicomedially.
