COLORATION: Anteocular lobe reddish-brown, most specimens with central dorsal area darker reddish-brown and with lighter mid-dorsal line, dark areas between compound eyes and antennal insertions. Postocular lobe yellowish-brown to reddish-brown, dorsal surface dark brown to brownish-black with mid-dorsal and circumocellar areas yellowish-brown to reddish-brown. Rostrum yellowish-brown to reddish-brown. Antennae reddish-brown, flagellomeres darker, base and apex of scape and pedicel dark brown. Anterior pronotal lobe yellowish-brown to reddish-brown, some specimens with dark brown areas on longitudinal medial sulcus and anterolateral margins. Posterior lobe reddish-brown dorsally with yellowish-brown lateral and posterior margins, lateral surfaces yellowish-brown, dark brown areas at anterior or dorsolateral margins and humeral angle. Scutellum yellowish-brown to reddish-brown. Legs yellowish-brown, most specimens with wide reddish-brown to brownish-black band at apices of femora and small dark area at apices of tibiae. Hernelytron brown with costal margin and veins of corium yellowish-brown. Abdomen venter reddish-brown. VESTITURE: Moderately setose. Anteocular lobe with short recumbent setae dorsally and laterally, short to moderately long erect setae on ventral surface. Postocular lobe with short, recumbent setae on dorsal and lateral surfaces, moderately erect setae scattered over surface, long, fine setae laterally. Anterior pronotal lobe with short, recumbent setae confined to setal tracts, long silky erect setae laterally. Posterior pronotal lobe with recumbent and sparse, erect setae. Meso- and metapleural surfaces with long silky erect setae. Scutellum with silky, erect setae. Clavus and corium of hemelytron with recumbent setae. Dorsum of abdomen with short erect setae, remainder of surface with short recumbent and short to moderately long erect setae, margin of connexivum fringed with erect setae. Exposed surface of pygophore with short to long erect setae. Apex of paramere with long erect setae. STRUCTURE: Head: Cylindrical, L/W = 2.31. Postocular lobe moderately long; in dorsal view anteriorly gradually narrowing, posterior portion constant, slightly narrower. Eye smallish; lateral margin only slightly wider than postocular lobe; in lateral view margins removed from dorsal and ventral surfaces of head. Ocellus noticeably elevated. Labium: I: II: III = 1: 1.8: 0.5. Basiflagellomere diameter about 1.4x as large as that of pedicel. Thorax: Anterolateral angle with inconspicuous, rounded projection; medial longitudinal sulcus shallow near collar, deepening posteriorly. Posterior pronotal lobe with finely rugulose surface; humeral angle armed, with spinous process, raised to level of and nearly continuous with disc. Scutellum moderately long; apex slightly produced into short fingerlike process. Legs: Slender. Femoral diameters subequal. Hemelytron: Surpassing apex of abdomen by about length of abdominal segment seven; quadrate cell small; Cu and M of cubital cell subparallel. GENITALIA: (Fig. 72) Pygophore: Elongate ovoid. Medial process triangular, broad, moderately long, arising from extended posterior margin, erect, straight, apex slightly curving, blunt, without modification. Paramere: Cylindrical; moderately long, slightly exceeding medial process; slightly curved ventrad; apical part enlarged, compressed. Phallus: Dorsal phallothecal sclerite somewhat squarish; medially slightly constricted; Dorsal phallothecal sclerite flat; apex truncate, medially emarginate; apical portion with transverse furrows; posterior margin of foramen broadly inversely V-shaped. Struts attached to dorsal phallothecal sclerite; apically separate, connected by bridge; fused basally. Basal plate arm slender to moderate; separate; converging; in lateral view nearly straight, only very slightly curved; bridge short; extension of basal plate small and confined to apex of basal plate arm.</paragraph>
