This species is very similar to the preceding : it may be known 

 by the apex only of the hind tibiae being black ; by the middle 

 lobe of mesonotum being smooth and not raised in the centre, by 

 the central area on the metanotum being distinctly divided into 

 a large basal and a smaller apical area ; it is joined to the base of 

 the metanotum by a V-shaped area ; the lateral area is triangular; 

 on the apical slope is a V-shaped area bordered by a more 

 irregular V-shaped one. Wings yellowish hyaline, with the 

 costa, stigma, and nervures yellow on the hyaline parts : the first 

 clotid commences at the transverse basal and median nervures, and 

 is narrowed in front, the apical at the end of the stigma ; the 

 nervures in the hind wings are yellow, with a slight cloud at the 

 apex. Parupsidal furrows faintly striated.
