second. Proboscis and palpi black. Thorax with distinct dorso-central bristles. Abdomen elliptical ; 
the hind borders of the last two segments with macrochete; hypopygium red. Legs black; front coxte 
with greyish-white reflections; middle and hind tibie piceous; hind tibie nearly straight, with long 
hairs on the inner side, and with very short hairs and some long bristles on the outer side. Tegule 
whitish. Wings greyish-hyaline ; third vein with a row of short bristles ; small cross-vein thick, under 
the end of the first vein and on the middle of the discal cell; curvature of the fourth vein with an acute 
angle; apical cross-vein incurved in its proximal third; posterior cross-vein slightly undulate.
