Diagnostic characters have been found especially on the antenna (the length and colour of basal segments, the shape of two basal flagellomeres, the length and colour of the ultimate and penultimate flagellomere), on the wing (presence or absence of the yellowish transverse streak, the extent of hyaline areas with reduced microtrichia) and the shape of hair patches on the abdomen.

Nevertheless, these surface structures need further study including a detailed comparison of scales and setulae among species, between both sexes and on different body parts. On the contrary, the shape of the prealar prominence seems to be fairly uniform within this genus, apart from some differences in the number and form of grooves on the dorsal surface (cf.
