Description of female.

Material examined: 1 ♀: Romania – Moldova / Comăneşti – Bacău county / 13.07.2014 / 46.27356 / 26.434257 / Leg. Pintilioaie Alex (NHMUK).

Female differs from male (see Rognes, 2010) as follows:

Body length: 7.5 mm.

Frons 1.1× as wide as compound eye in dorsal view. Fronto-orbital plate with two proclinate orbital setae and one upper reclinate orbital seta. Outer vertical seta well developed. Terminalia (Fig. 7 C–E): Sclerites 7–8 and intersegmental membrane very long (sternite 7 about 3× as long as wide, sternite 8 about 4× as long as wide). Tergite 8 divided into two long and narrow hemitergites (almost stick-like, but with an enlarged anterior end). Sternite 8 elongate with entire apex. Sensilla trichodea (alpha setae) present on sternites. Epiproct lobe-shaped, without microtrichosity, with several sensilla trichodea apically, with seven setae apically. Hypoproct with well-developed ligulae. Cerci moderately elongated, i.e. slightly longer than epiproct, with several sensilla trichodea on apical third, with short setae apically and without microtrichosity.

Distribution. Palaearctic – Romania, Serbia.
