. Frons about a fifth head width, at narrowest point about as wide as length of third antennal segment, rather matt with at most faint white dust spots on anterolateral corners. Evenly widening towards front. Mouth margin very narrow, practically absent, broader and paler level with antennae. Ocellar triangle very slightly obtuse, almost equilateral, lateral ocelli separated from the eye by their diameter or a little less. Longest hairs on ocellar tubercle short, about as long as width between lateral ocelli and appreciably shorter than width of frons at vertex. Occiput covered with grey dust, including area behind vertex which is slightly more shining, and relatively short black hairs, shorter above, longer below. Antennae black to brown, relatively short, third segment obovate, less than twice as long as scape and pedicel combined, almost bare above. Proboscis black, naked, about as long as mesonotum. Palps very small, black with small apical setae.

. Entirely black to dark brown, mesonotum shining and mostly smooth, lightly pale-dusted on pronotum, postpronotal lobe, notopleuron and above wing. Hairs short, on disc of mesonotum similar to that on vertex, acrostichals bi- to triserial, paramedian lines bare back to level of wing base, lateral hairs evenly distributed becoming longer on notopleuron. Scutellum shining, disc a little more sparsely haired than mesonotum, marginal hairs longer but barely exceed half the length of the scutellum. Pleurae black to brown, predominantly covered in pale dust, a shining strip along hind edge of anepisternum and katepisternum ventrally also dust-free. Anepisternum with dark hairs similar to those on mesonotum in upper half and posterior margin.

. Small, rather globular and retracted under the tip of the abdomen to the extent that it is possible to mistake the sexes. Epandrium with large, rounded, subapical projections that, in dry specimens, wrap around the cerci and tip of gonocoxite. Epandrium rather evenly covered with short, dark hairs, gonocoxite with longer hairs.

Very similar to male, frons marginally wider, dust spots a little more conspicuous and ocellar triangle more obtuse. Mouth margin also a little broader. Hairs generally shorter, especially on tergites 1–4; on mesonotal vestiture sparser, bare paramedian lines more obvious. Sternite eight broadest basally, quite clearly embossed in basal half, apicomedially with a squarish translucent patch, apically with two lobes, divided medially, thus quite distinct from other species so far examined.
