Body yellowish. Head with pair of brown semilunar patches transferring from crown to face. The posterior margin of crown with brown short streak medially. Coronal suture brown. Face yellowish. Eyes blackish. Scutellum and fore wing brown.

Male genitalia: Pygofer with about 2 macrosetae at cephalo-ventral angle of lobe (Fig. 23a); apex of dorsal appendage bifurcated, with the upper tooth slightly longer than the lower one (Fig. 23b). Style with apical tooth nearly beak-shaped, much shorter than the subapical tooth (Fig. 23d). Aedeagal shaft with pair of long apical processes; preatrial process long, but not reaching gonopore; gonopore nearly subapical (Figs 23e, f).
