Ocelli slightly elevated from surface of vertex, separated by the diameter of one ocellus or less, closer to each other than to eyes. Preocellar spots distinct, paler than surrounding area, subtriangular to crescent-shaped, narrowly to broadly touching eyes (by one ocellus width or more), slightly extending or not in front of ocelli. Preocellar furrows present, about as deep as or slightly deeper than longitudinal frontal furrow. Preocular spots usually distinct, paler than surrounding area.

species exhibit a high level of eunomic variability. Divergence from the standard eunomy is common even within populations. Tenerals or recently molted adults with a soft cuticle can be deceptively pale compared to fully mature adults; they may also have distorted male genitalia. Environmental factors also seem to be at play, cooler temperatures and/or higher humidity generally shifting the eunomic series towards the dark side of the sequence while the reverse produces lighter forms. These trends were also noted and briefly discussed by
