behind a line between anterior eye angles, each very slightly closer to adjacent 
anterior eye angle than to median line of crown, crown with disk very slightly 
concave and without sculpturing or setae, lateral clypeal sutures extending 
onto crown and attaining ocelli; antennal ledges not protuberant, in lateral 
view with anterior margins oblique and slightly convex; face with a short 
acute thornlike protuberance dorsally, clypeus flattened, muscle impressions 
not distinct, clypellus with a slight convexity at base, otherwise with profile 
continuing that of remainder of face. 
Thorax with pronotal width less than transocular width of head, lateral 
margins parallel, dorsopleural carinae oblique and incomplete, posterior 
margin shallowly concave, disk transversely rugulose; scutellum weakly striate 
behind transverse sulcus. Forewing without a membrane, veins not elevated 
but longitudinal veins distinct in color from remainder of wing surface, with 
three anteapical cells of which the bases are proximal to claval apex; with 
four apical cells of which base of outermost is more proximal than base of 
third. Hindleg with femoral setal formula 2:1:1; length of basal tarsomere 
greater than combined length of two more distal tarsomeres and with two 
parallel rows of small setae on plantar surface.
