Hind femora with short, adpressed hairs, marginal scutellar hairs short, barely longer than half length of scutellum at mid point and mesonotum matt with shagreened surface sculpture. Male with genitalia folded tightly under abdomen, large and globular with epandrium wider than long, a few apical hairs with wavy tips, epiphallus sickle-shaped, diagnostic. Female only reliably identified by examination of genitalia (Plate X).

Rather matt, frons surface shagreened, with at most faint white-dusted spots at level of antennae, hardly extending on to anterolateral corners. Mouth margin very narrow, practically absent, broader and grey-dusted level with antennae. Ocellar triangle obtuse, lateral ocelli separated from the eye by their diameter.

Hairs short, on disc of mesonotum shorter than on vertex, acrostichals tri- to quadriserial, bare paramedian lines very indistinct, narrower than acrostichal line, laterally hairs evenly distributed becoming longer on notopleuron. Scutellum subshining, shagreened, with shallow transverse striations, disc a little more sparsely haired than mesonotum, marginal hairs longer but only a few exceed half the length of the scutellum. Pleurae black, predominantly covered in thin pale dust, anepisternum shining in posterodorsal half and a narrow anterior strip, small shining patch in middle of anepimeron, katepisternum ventrally also dust free. Anepisternum with dark hairs similar to those on notopleuron in upper half and posterior margin.
