or less), but more delicate than typical leucopines. Postocellar and ocellar setae are absent. The frons is flat and meets the lunule at nearly a 90° angle. The fronto-orbital and median areas of the frons have long, erect white setulae, but lack setae. The lunule has a straight to slightly curved upper margin, appearing squared, and in some species is dark brown to black along with the face, parafacial and medial part of the gena. The face has deep antennal grooves and is either all black or all silvery pruinose. The mouthparts are very small and held within the oral cavity above the small cylindrical palpi. The antennae are black. The scutum is entirely silvery-grey pruinose, lacking dorsocentral vittae, and with 2 pairs of dorsocentral setae in the posterior part of the scutum. Prescutellar setae are absent. Prescutellum present. Scutellum concolorous with scutum. The abdominal tergites are dark silvery-grey pruinose, except the dorsal parts of syntergite 1+2 and tergite 3 are bronzy pruinose. In the male genitalia, the phallus is always elongated, and can be either gently or strongly curved, and some species lack a pregonite. In the female, sternite 6 is wider than preceding sternites, tergite 7 is strap-like when present, sternite 7 is arcuate when present, all setulae of the pseudo-ovipositor are tiny, and spermathecae are 2+2.
