Forewing with basal vein straight, basad cu-a by slightly less than length of cu-a; M angled posteriorly after separating from Rs; r-rs slightly more than three-quarters length second abscissa of Rs; second abscissa Rs straight; 1rs-m absent; second submarginal cell; 1m-cu meeting second submarginal cell near base, distad second abscissa Rs by about one-half length of 1m-cu; 2rs-m confluent with 2m-cu; 2rs-m slightly arched apically in posterior half; discal and subdiscal cells much longer than high (around 3.8 times); marginal cell elongate. Metasoma densely covered by setae, without evidence bands of coloration or setae; tip of sting discernible.
