Long curved silvery hairs project over the 
eyes and clypeus. Scattered over the back 
of the head there are a few narrow-curved 
and spindle-shaped scales. 
Palpi are not densely scaled and show 
three white bands including the apices. The 
lowest band is about a third of the way up 
the palpus and is intermediate in size. The 
central band is the smallest and the apical 
the broadest. Proboscis brown with yellow 
apex. Clypeus dark brown, antennae are
