Mesoscutum with strong reticulation, meshes isodiametric on sidelobes, slightly elongate on midlobe; midlobe without median groove, with three adnotaular setae in a single row. Mesoscutellum with weak reticulation on median part, slightly stronger on lateral parts, meshes elongate; submedian grooves distinct in posterior two-thirds and slightly diverging towards posterior part, indistinct in anterior one-third. Dorsellum with strong reticulation. Fore and mid coxae with weak reticulation, hind coxa with strong reticulation. Fore wing with two setae on dorsal surface of submarginal vein; speculum open towards base of wing; costal setal row broken.
