the prothorax, mesonotum, scutellum, and tegulae, ferruginous ; the 
wings uniformly fuscous-violaceous ; the first abscissa of the radius longer 
than the third, which is half the length of the second ; the first and second 
transverse cubital nervures obliquely sloped, the first more rounded than 
the second ; the recurrent nervures received in the middle of the cellules ; 
the transverse basal interstitial ; the accessory nervure in the hind wing 
received very shortly before the cubitus ; temples almost obsolete, the 
occiput slightly rounded outwardly ; pronotum as long as the mesonotum 
and scutellum, the metanotum slightly longer than them ; the third joint 
of the antennae shorter than the fourth. Male.

second abscissa of the radius fully one- quarter longer than the third ; the 
basal two transverse cubital nervures broadly, roundly curved ; the apical 
abscissa of the radius straight, obliquely turned upwards ; the first 
recurrent nervure received shortly before the base of the apical third of 
the cellule, the second broadly, roundly curved outwardly, received near

of the basal two joints of the flagellum ; hinder ocelli separated from each 
other by half the distance they are from the eyes ; temples sharply, roundly 
narrowed ; the occiput transverse ; clypeus wider than long, gradually 
narrowed to a point at the apex ; the apical margin smooth and shining,
