. Sexual dimorphism in this tribe is very subtle and difficult to detect. The antennal club is reduced in both sexes (generally less than half the length of the funicle) and there are no sexually dimorphic characters in the head or legs. The convexity of the abdomen is generally sexually dimorphic but the differences are subtle since the abdomen in both sexes appears convex or inflated.
