COLORATION: Many specimens with wasp-like habitus, with alternating black and yellow areas; anterior pronotal lobe usually dark brown, posterior lobe and proximal portion of corium yellowish; some specimens with nearly entire dorsal surface dark. Legs vary from nearly uniformly yellow or blackish-brown to yellow-brown banded. VESTITURE: Densely setose. Head with dark, erect, spine-like setae dorsally and light, recumbent setae ventrally. Anterior pronotal lobe with short, dark, spine-like setae, confined to setal tracts; posterior pronotal lobe with short, spine-like setae dorsally, fine, recumbent and erect setae on lateral surfaces. Abdomen with sparse, short, semi-erect setae. STRUCTURE: Head: Cylindrical, L/W = 2.28. Postocular lobe long; in dorsal view distinctly narrowing through anterior 2/3, posterior 1/3 constant, tube-like. Eye prominent; lateral margin much wider than postocular lobe; dorsal margin removed from postocular transverse groove, ventral margin attaining ventral surface of head. Labium: I: II: III = 1: 1.6: 0.4. Basiflagellomere diameter larger than that of pedicel. Thorax: Anterolateral angle rounded, without projection; medial longitudinal sulcus evident only on posterior 1/2, deepening anterior to transverse sulcus of pronotum. Posterior pronotal lobe with smooth surface; disc distinctly elevated above humeral angle; humeral angle rounded, without projection. Scutellum long; apex angulate, not projected. Legs: Very slender. Hemelytron: Greatly surpassing apex of abdomen by about 3x length of abdominal segment seven; quadrate cell large and broad; Cu and M of cubital cell subparallel. GENITALIA: (Fig. 66) Pygophore: Ovoid; mid-lateral fold adjacent to paramere insertion; not expanded laterally in dorsal view. Medial process cylindrical; extremely slender; moderately long; semi-erect; apex in posterior view blunt, slightly folded posteriad. Paramere: Cylindrical; long, surpassing medial process; directed posteriad, slightly curved towards medial process; slightly curved ventrad; apical part very slightly enlarged. Phallus: Dorsal phallothecal sclerite elongated; apical portion of phallothecal sclerite not distinctly tapered, convex, laterally indistinctly angulate; apex truncate, medially emarginate; posterior margin of foramen deeply concave. Struts attached to dorsal phallothecal sclerite; apically separate, connected by bridge; basally almost completely fused. Basal plate arm slender; separate; converging; in lateral view very slightly curved; bridge moderately long; extension of basal plate small, marginally expanded onto arm.</paragraph>
