Diagnosis. Head with short apical part (after bend line), 0.8 times as long as the part of the head before the line ( Figs 36, 37 View Figs 36–38 , 39, 41 View Figs 39–42 ). Style with short capitulum ( Figs 47–49 View Figs 43–49 ). Female sternite VII trapezoidally concaved medially; fused endogonocoxal lobes notched apically ( Figs 32, 33 View Figs 28–35 ).

Hind tibia with six (2 + 4) apical spines. Hind femora and tibiae 10 % longer than middle and fore ones.

Coloration ( Figs 36–38 View Figs 36–38 ). Generally light yellow (apparently light green when alive). In a better pigmented female metope reddish above the clypeus and between the sublateral view; 26, 27 = same, caudal view. Out of scale carinae; median and sublateral carinae brown­reddish. Postclypeus with reddish median line. Coryphe, pro­ and mesonotum with wide red median stripe. Paranotal lobes with reddish carinae and lower margins. Tegulae with reddish spots. Forewings with red claval margins. Forewing A 1 with Pcu + A 1 light green – fluorescent. Apices of third tarsomeres, leg spines and claws black.

Hind margins of pygofer strongly protrud­ endogonocoxal lobes, ventral view. Out of scale ing in its basal halves, with wide and rounded process below the anal tube (in lateral view) ( Fig. 44 View Figs 43–49 ). Ventral margin of pygofer below the styles widely concave medially ( Fig. 43 View Figs 43–49 ). Aedeagus strongly curved, with two rows of denticles dorso­laterally and rounded apical furcation (in ventral view) ( Figs 45, 46 View Figs 43–49 ). Style with vertically elongate and narrow plate and short capitulum, with deep spoon­shaped concavity below it ( Figs 47–49 View Figs 43–49 ). Capitulum of style with fine curved lines dorsally ( Fig. 47 View Figs 43–49 ).

Female genitalia ( Figs 32, 33 View Figs 28–35 ). Hind margin of sternite VII trapezoidally concaved medially, fused endogonocoxal lobes slightly narrowing apically, notched.

Total length: male – 8.0 mm, female – 9.2 mm.
