<paragraph pageId="43" pageNumber="44">This species is distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: Small to moderately small shore flies, body length 1.65-2.10 mm.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="43" pageNumber="44">Head: Frons dull, heavily microtomentose, 2-toned, mostly tan with some faint golden reflections on posterior 2/3, anterior 1/3 (from level of fronto-orbital setae anteriad), gray. Antenna mostly yellow to yellowish orange, anterior portion of pedicel and basodorsal area of basal flagellomere with some blackish coloration; arista with 5 dorsal rays. Face at narrowest point about equal to combined length of pedicel and basal flagellomere; face densely microtomentose, microtomentum with shiny to pearly luster, mostly yellowish to golden white but with considerable gold coloration in antennal grooves and extended laterally onto parafacial; parafacial not markedly differing from midfacies in color, more golden dorsally, becoming whiter ventrally; parafacial with slight to considerable ventral dilation; parafacial color not markedly different from that of middle of face, usually silvery white; parafacial 2-3 times wider ventrally than dorsally; gena moderately short, less than 1/4 eye height, subequal to height of basal flagellomere; gena-to-eye ratio 0.18-0.20.</paragraph>
<paragraph pageId="43" pageNumber="44">Thorax: Mesonotum mostly dull, densely microtomentose, concolorous with posterior 2/3 of frons; pleural area blackish gray. Stout setae on apical half; anterior margin of wing lacking large, spine-like setae; costal vein ratio 0.65-0.70; M vein ratio 0.53-0.57. Forefemur lacking row of 9-10 short, stout setae along apical half of anteroventral surface; forefemur with posteroventral row of 7-10 short setulae, each equal to width of femur; tibiae mostly yellowish, mid- and hindtibia whitish to grayish over middle portion; basal tarsomeres yellow, apical 1-2 brown.</paragraph>
<paragraph lastPageId="44" lastPageNumber="45" pageId="43" pageNumber="44">
Abdomen: Tergites mostly broadly blackish brown, subshiny to shiny dorsomedially; tergite 5 of male broadly pointed posteriorly. Male terminalia (Figs 74-77): Epandrium connected dorsally above cerci (Fig. 75), in posterior view (Fig. 75) broadly oval with ventral, tapered extensions, oval portion evenly setulose; extensions parallel sided, separated apically with wide gap, apex narrowly rounded, extensions minutely setulose; ventral third of epandrium in lateral view (Fig. 75) shallowly sinuous, very narrow

elongate, curved anteroventrally, pointed apically; gonites almost symmetrical, in lateral view rod-like but relatively short, end toward hypandrium tapered and curved, opposite end truncate, in ventral view (Fig. 74) with flange on each side almost equal; aedeagus in lateral view (Fig. 77) complex, with distinct basiphallus that ends in an elongate digitiform extension, and a twisted distiphallus; phallapodeme in lateral view (Fig. 77) elongate, clavate, keel barely evident, in ventral view (Fig. 76) short, curved laterally to right; hypandrium in ventral view (Fig. 76) H-shaped, relatively small, in lateral view (Fig. 77) moderately elongate, tapered to point anteriorly.
