These specimens appear to represent this long unrecognized species. 

 Superficially the coloration resembles species of the genus Amphiacusta,. 

 but the peculiar rostrum and slenderer limbs readily differentiate it. 

 The anal filaments are very long, considerably exceeding the ovipositor. 

 The coloration of the limbs is very rich, the caudal femora being wine- 

 color with one complete and one broken distal annulus of ochre.
