Agrees with merklionale in having the base of the claws greatly 

 produced; also the female hypopygium shows great similarity to 

 the mendionale type. Externally the females are so close in appear- 

 ance to penssum and small specimens of venustum that one must 

 rely on the structure of the claws for their separation. Body 

 shining black; frons shining, as broad as the clypeus; fore coxae 

 yellowish ; legs bicolored ; tergites before the sixth greatly reduced, 

 opaque black, remaining tergites shining black ; abdominal pile very 

 sparse, pale; stem vein black pilose.
