The interocellar setae are colourless in this species although the epimeral setae are 

 shaded and the lateral head setae dark. On tergite IX of the unique holotype setae

 known, but the lateral lobes of the pelta are very slender. A second species is 

 mounted on the same slide as the holotype.
