has a well-marked median furrow on scutellum, a strong angulation separating the anterior and posterior surfaces of hind coxa ventrally on females and the F1 and F2 with similar size on males. Females can be diagnosed by the elongated aspect of head, hypostomal carina projected anteriorly, S1 without a tuberculate elevation, and the setae on mesoscutum with about 1 OD long. Males are diagnosed also by the elongated aspect of head, and the S1 without elevation. This species has a broad distribution and plenty of morphological variation, but is the only in the studied area that often presents black spots on head and clypeus. Often the metasomal terga are dorsally darkened, lacking punctures. Entirely golden or green specimens are common.
