AN and PN with Ma admixed black and reddish-brown; long, slightly iridescent, reddish-brown scales at base of wing. Pleural hairs black, with reddish-brown iridescence. Scales on APA white. Laterotergite with dark reddish-brown Ma ventrally, white dorsally and red medially. Plumula with dense long white scales and TR with dense long yellow scales. Scutellum dark reddish-brown, black basally; scales black basally, transparent pale-brown medially and posteriorly, posterior scales longest; long dense, black setae. Legs reddish-yellow with black scales. Microchaetae on fore-tarsi curved apically. Pulvilli straight sharp cones, more than 1/3 length of mid- and hind-tarsal claws. Halter knob red with pale whitish apical edge. Wing (Fig. 7A, B). Widened base of C with black scales with pale band posteriorly. Spur-veins present on base of R4 extending into r4 and on apex of m-cu extending into m2 in some specimens; bump at basal bend of m-cu. Wing pattern (Fig. 7A, B) black, dimidiate, broad basal infuscation following R proximal to i-r1 to wing margin in apical 4/5 anal cell; indented in 1st r2+3; no lobe or medial band; dc infuscated except for rectangular hyaline area at junction of m-cu and m-m; apex hyaline. Dark yellowish-brown areas bordering base of CuA1, join of R1 and Rs, r-m continuing onto base of R2+3, and base m-cu; together with prediscoidal opaque area forming indistinct pentagonal pattern of spots within infuscation. Anal and cup infuscated for basal 4/5. Alula and squama edged with dense long cream scales; proximal 1/3 of anal cell edged with black scales, longest basally. Abdomen. (Fig. 7A, B). Tergites black with red anterolateral areas medially rounded on T2-3 < 1/4 width of tergite. Scales dense, black except: T3 with uninterrupted white band of upstanding scales narrowing medially, laterally spanning entire tergite; T1-3 with dense long white upstanding lateral scales; T6-7 with white scales. T1 with Ma white dorsally and laterally, yellow ventrally. T1-3 with long dense white setae laterally, pale brown anteriorly, and black posteromedially; T4-7 with long dense thick black setae. Sternites red with sparse long pale reddish scales, dense long black setae. Genitalia (Fig. 8). Epandrium red with distinct anterolateral flange bearing cluster of long black setae; basal flange very large, long, broad, extending basally and apically upcurved; setae black, loosely grouped anterolaterally; SES very long, linear, broadened basally. Gonocoxae red, strongly narrowed medially; ventral ridge projecting; LAEA deeply convex; GS cupped within G margins, subquadrate base projecting apically; very large recurved rami extending beyond G margins; setae long black, not short apically, dense tufts of long, thickened setae medially, directed basally, very long thin setae continuing laterally; H large, subquadrate in lateral view, distinctly projecting. Epiphallus 1.4 ? neck width; with apical margins inturned forming projecting rounded lobes. Female. Unknown.
