Female Body length: 3.88-4.68 mm (n=10). Male Body length: 4.45-4.65 mm (n=2). Color of scape in female: brown. Surface of dorsal head in female: with obliterated patches between lateral ocelli, otherwise with somewhat flattened sculpture. Occipital carina in female: percurrent; broadly obliterated medially. Profile of posterior margin of head in lateral view: produced posteriorly, head appearing wedge-shaped. Width of genal setae: narrow to moderately wide.

Surface of pronotal nucha in female: with slight but prominent obliterated/smooth patch, otherwise sculptured throughout. Transverse pronotal carina in female: percurrent, not interrupted medially. Shape of mesoscutellum: transverse, broadly depressed posteromedially, posterolateral margins slightly elevated.

All but one individual (OSUC 213460 from South Africa) have obliterated or smoother patches on the anterolateral propodeal shelf. All other ipomeae-group species have the shelf sculptured throughout.
