Head width subequal to length of mesonotum. Head height 76–80 % of head width. Gena extremely narrow, at mid-length 6.5–7.0 % of eye height. Postgenal region not ventrally prominent, with posteroventrally directed bristle. Face narrow, 12–15 % of head width, higher than broad, sclerotised along entire height. Arista short-haired, longest hairs about twice width of arista at base. Spaces between orbital bristles about in proportion 2.0: 4.0: 4.5–5.0, anterior and second bristles subequal in length and strength, about three-quarters length and strength of posterior 2 pairs. Outer vertical bristle about three-quarters length and strength of inner vertical. Postvertical bristles subequal in length to posterior pair of orbitals, ocellars also subequal in length.

: Two bristles on propleural region, the anterior moderately developed and the posterior weak. Mesopleuron with 1 bristle and with setulae scattered over posterior one-third. One sternopleural bristle, disc of sternopleuron sometimes with a few upwardly directed setulae. One strong humeral bristle; 2 notopleurals, anterior one longer, and posterior one slightly to noticeably shorter than humeral; 1 presutural, noticeably weaker than humeral, and half to three-quarters length; 1 long supra-alar; 1 very long anterior postalar, posterior postalar weak, noticeably less than half length and strength of anterior bristle; 0 + 2 dorsocentrals, anterior one one-quarter to one-third length of posterior one and inserted at about threefifths distance between transverse and scutoscutellar sutures; 1 weak prescutellar acrostichal bristle, similar in length to anterior dorsocentral. Mesonotum with numerous stiff, suberect, setulae, these usually longer towards scutoscutellar suture. Scutellum with pair of very long (subequal in length or slightly shorter than posterior postalar) divergent, apical bristles, also 1 pair subapical marginal bristles and pair of cruciate discal scutellars in virtually the same transverse line, all subequal in length but about one-third length and strength of apicals. Prosternum with up to 3 dark setulae on each side.
