Facial ridge with hairs on basal 2/5 or less (occasionally higher, but if so, short and hairlike above lowest third), and lower margin of face descending to the level of vibrissa. Subvibrissal ridge short, usually with 1 or 2 setae; postgena narrow, with a distinct but small genal dilation. Posteroventral part of the head with the majority of setae fine and white-yellowish and posterodorsal part of the head without black setae behind the postocular row. Palpus yellowish; sparsely to moderately bristled; almost uniform in width, but sometimes slightly broadened at the apex.</paragraph>

Mid tibia with 1 anterodorsal seta, 2 posterodorsal setae, and 1 ventral seta. Hind tibia with anterodorsal setae uneven in length and not closely spaced; 2 well-developed posterodorsal setae, rarely with 1 additional shorter seta; 2 well-developed anteroventral setae. Upper and lower calypteres brownish-yellowish. Wing varied from light to dark fumose on cells sc, r1, r2+3, and sometimes on r4+5. Females with nearly hyaline wings. Wing vein R4+5 dorsally setose from its base nearly to crossvein r-m, and R1 bare, rarely only with 1 or 2 setae. Vein M smoothly curved at bend and ending at wing margin, separately from vein R4+5.</paragraph>

Females with spine-like setae on ventral margins of tg4 making two irregular rows of short, stout, curved and closely set of 7-10 spines per each row, which are concentrated in the distal 2/3 of the tergite (Figure 4a).

terminalia (N = 2, Figs 5, 6): Sternite 5 with median cleft smoothly V-shaped; inner margin somewhat projecting, with minute setae; internal margins of the apical lobes slightly convex anteriorly; apical lobe slightly rounded apically with small scattered, setae (Fig. 5). The basal section of st5 distinctly longer than the length of the apical lobes. Hypandrial arms separated. Pregonite slightly curved anteriorly and tapered to a narrow rounded tip. Postgonite well developed, parallel sided and strongly curved anteriorly, with rounded apex. Epiphallus reduced. Surstylus with small hairs on the outer surface. Surstylus, in lateral view, slightly narrowed toward the apex, and ending in a broad rounded point. Surstylus and cercus subequal in length, or surstyli slightly longer. Cercus, in lateral view, slightly curved along its anterior and posterior margins, ending in a rounded apex (Fig. 5). In posterior view, cerci narrowed linearly from upper lobes to apical cleft and then constricted on apical 1/3; upper lobe and medial section subequal in length, upper lobe longer than the apical cleft; apical cleft weakly defined (Fig. 5). Distiphallus divided at base into long, thin sclerite posteriorly and broader winged and sclerotized portion anteriorly, the latter studded with small dentate structures.
