This is one of five species, including Loboscelidia cervix, Loboscelidia novoguineana, Loboscelidia ora and Loboscelidia parva, where the frontal projection is broadly flattened and nearly linear in front view. It can be distinguished from these species by the arched medial vein, cu-a as long as or longer than R, foretibial flange as wide as tubular part of tibia, and the mid and hindtibial flanges 1.5 × as wide as tubular part of the tibiae or wider.
