Frons glistening white with faintly yellow tinge, this colour extending down the gena, lacking erect hairs. Occiput and ocellar tubercle dark in ground colour densely covered with grey-white dust and outstanding yellowish-grey hairs, those on ocellar tubercle short, longer and denser on occiput. All ocelli in contact with eye margin (from plate). Eyes confluent for a little longer than half the length of the head (looks shorter than this in plate). Antennae black, scape and pedicel paler due to greyish dust more conspicuous than on postpedicel. Postpedicel somewhat swollen below basally, contracted in apical third, a little less than twice the length of scape and pedicel combined. Antennae sparsely haired above, short pale yellowish hairs on scape and pedicel. Palps very small and short, slightly clavate, yellowishbrown apically bearing one short, stiff, whitish hair. Proboscis relatively long, about twice as long as head (including antennae), black except for the creamy-buff basoventral membrane.</paragraph>

Antehumeral vittae less well defined but similar in colour, divided at thoracic suture, anterior to suture rather oval, behind suture either similar but longer or a narrow stripe. Whole of mesonotum and scutellum covered with short, erect, not dense pale yellowish hair, whiter and longer on the front of the mesonotum, postpronotal lobe and notopleuron. Mesonotum very finely punctured with black pits at points of hair attachments. Scutellum uniformly rather densely brownish-grey to greyish-brown dust, finely punctured as mesonotum, the hairs rather longer and pale yellowish.

Lateral ocelli separated from corner of eye by about twice the diameter of that ocellus.

Legs with pale areas a little more extensive, especially on the front and middle legs, front and middle tibia have apical quarter or third reddish-yellow. Abdomen broader than in male as typical for genus, tergites ash-grey dusted, the apical margins of the tergites broader, up to half the length of the tergite.

Very short, pale brown proclinate hairs on ocellar tubercle and rear of frons laterally, hardly longer than diameter of an ocellus. Eye facets all small and equal. Occiput dark in ground colour; densely coated with cinereous-yellow dust and covered with white hairs as long as length of scape and pedicel combined.

Laterally clear antehumeral vittae, broken at thoracic suture, anterior one broader than posterior part. In the supra-alar area is a dusted spot very similar in colour to the mesonotal vittae placed behind the thoracic suture by about the diameter of the spot. In many species that also have this spot it is variable and missing in some individuals so is likely to be variable in this species. Hairs of mesonotum very short, white, sparse and biserial on acrostichal lines, more abundant, tri- to quadriserial on dorsocentral lines, longer on notopleuron where hairs longer than scape and pedicel combined. Scutellum as mesonotum, ground colour vaguely darker basally, pale yellow-white hairs similar in length to those on the notopleuron. Pleura concolourous with sides of mesonotum, grey dusted, pronotum and dorsum and posterior half of the anepisternum with white hairs like those on notopleuron.
