This species shows a single colour pattern of the hair with little variation. This is the pattern in the original description, which is unique within the subgenus. All known specimens of the species have a yellow-banded and none has a white-banded colour pattern. The males from the Tanggula mountains (MD#339, 4131) have the yellow anterior collar of the thoracic dorsum narrower, barely reaching posteriorly to the tegula, and with many black hairs intermixed, and the metasomal terga 47 have many of the hairs white-tipped. The queens and workers are unusually large for species of this subgenus, although the males are similar in size to those of the other species. The form of the male genitalia is diagnostic.
