<paragraph pageId="1" pageNumber="42">Holotype female. Body length: 8.9 mm. Specimen mostly light yellow. Head (Fig. 1) with eyes black (green in life,) more or less suboval in profile, rounded laterally in frontal view, with very short yellowish bristles which are barely visible under higher magnification. Frons (Fig. 2) narrow, somewhat parallel sided, slightly divergent dorsally and ventrally, frontal index about 2.7, smoothly tomentose, with a median inconspicuous groove, and short, inconspicuous brown bristles. Ocellar tubercle (Fig. 2) somewhat prominent, as high as ocellus. Subcallus (Fig. 2) very small, tomentose, separation from frons indistinct. Parafacial narrow, tomentose, with long black bristles. Face convex laterally, deeply sunken medially, tomentose, without bristles, separate from parafacial by deep groove. Antenna (Fig. 3) with scape and pedicel short, plump, yellow to brown, and with robust black bristles; flagellum light yellow with robust black bristles, apparently with six flagellomeres; postpedicel swollen when observed in lateral view, with three distal flagellomeres, the first flagellomere almost totally fused to postpedicel based on a distinct incomplete suture on medial side (see Fig. 3 from a clarified antenna of a different paratype specimen); second flagellomere as long as first and with an indistinct suture; third flagellomere, the distalmost, longer than two preceding flagellomeres. Palpus (Fig. 4) with first segment somewhat swollen, second slightly narrower and slightly curved, distinctly bristled. Proboscis short, as long as palpi, membranous, with long, narrow, soft and bristled labellum.</paragraph>

Terminalia: Tergite 9 (Fig. 6) narrow medially, expanded laterally; tergite 10 subrectangular in dorsal view, divided medially; cercus subtriangular.
