All legs with white setae. Apex of fore and mid tibiae with comb of four or five stout spines; hind coxa shagreened, with sparse, small, white setae; hind femur stout, shagreened, 2.4
<normalizedToken originalValue="×">x</normalizedToken>
longer than wide, with strong, long, erect white setae projecting from dorsal and ventral margin, outer surface of hind femur sparsely, covered with short, erect, white setae; inner surface of hind femur polished with very short setae; surface of hind tibia rugulose, with two sharp stout, but elongate black (grading to white apically) spines, in close apposition, projecting from dorsoapical margin (almost as long as basitarsus 0.83
<normalizedToken originalValue="×">x</normalizedToken>
); two hind tibial spurs strong, curved, longitudinally striate with minute setae; hind tibia with long, erect, white setae dorsally and ventrally, shorter setae laterally; dorsal setae lacking spatulate tips; inner ventral margin of hind tibia with a dense longitudinal patch of shorter white setae; hind basitarsus long, 1.4
<normalizedToken originalValue="×">x</normalizedToken>
length of remaining four tarsomeres combined; basitarsus ventrally with dense preening brush consisting of numerous short, white setae, inclined posteriorly; basitarsus dorsally with two or three strong, long, erect white setae, lacking spatulate tips; T2 and T3 slightly longer than wide, T4 ca. as long as wide, T5 3.4

Forewing length 3.15 mm, 3.3
<normalizedToken originalValue="×">x</normalizedToken>
longer than wide; wing basally with cells R and 1A largely devoid of setae, but with widely spaced strong erect setae projecting from surrounding veins; remaining wing surface evenly, but sparsely covered with small, scattered setae; basally and medially with scattered stronger, short setae; wing clear, with two light brown pigmented patches, positioned in two vertical semi-bands. Basal wing band narrowest dorsally, covering basal 1/10 of cell 1M, posterior 1/5 of cell R, and anterior 1/8 of cell 1Cu, extending ventrally to wing margin, diffusely covering basal 1/2 of cell 2CU and all of 3A, both of which are hardly demarcated by ephemeral veins; apical wing band reduced to two patches; dorsal patch starting at base of pterostigma, and anterior end of 1R1, extending apically to cover basal posterior quarter of marginal cell 2R1, ventrally to cover almost entire cell 1+2RS, ventrally wider and more diffuse; ventral patch starting below vein M and extending to but not reaching posterior margin of wing; forewing venation with vein Rs apically curving abruptly towards anterior wing margin to form short, truncate marginal cell 2R1; apical segment of vein M long, extending beyond apex of marginal cell, vein M with small white bulla 1/3 of vein length. Hind wing with apical stub of vein Rs 2/3 of shortest width between the propodeal submedian longitudinal carinae.
