Diagnosis. Recognized by the dark coloration ( Fig. 8 ), yellow V-shaped spot on head, antenna with semi-erect short spines and the endosoma with long sclerite elongated ( Fig. 44 ), medial left sclerite semicircular covered by short trichia ( Fig. 44 ), and ventral right sclerite fusiform ( Fig. 52 ).

Redescription. Male: COLORATION: Black, with gray areas. Head: Black, with transversal pale spot Vshaped posterior to longitudinal sulcus; eye pale brown; mandibular plate, maxillary plate and apex of buccula, black; labium brown with black apex; clypeus black; antennal segments dark brown, segment I pale. Thorax: Pronotum and collar black; longitudinal line in inner region of calli, pale; two rounded black spots on humeral angles; proepisternum black with a yellow pale line on margin; scutellum black. Hemelytra brown with dark spot on clavus, irregular dark patches in median region; embolium and external region of cuneus pale; internal and median margins of cuneus and hemelytral membrane, brown; ostiolar peritreme with pale brown margins; abdomen with yellowish median spots and black spot at apex of pygophore. VESTITURE AND STRUCTURE: Head: Antenna with short semi-erect short spines; segment I slightly thickened, 1.3 times width of head (Table 1), segment II 5 times longer than I (Table 1). Pronotum: Clearly divided in two areas or lobes by a lateral constriction and a dorsal transversal shallow sulcus; with golden sparse and erect pilosity. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: Pygophore: Elongated with apex slightly rounded with a left projected lateroposterior margin ( Fig. 19 ). Parameres: Left paramere sickle-shape ending in lateral tip with dorsal margin of basal sensory lobe almost straight and ventral margin of basal sensory lobe clearly convex; hypophysis with a sharp lateral projection ( Fig. 31 ); right paramere as in Fig. 31 . Endosoma: With long sclerite strongly tapered towards apex and microtrichia in basal and medial region ( Fig. 44 ); medial left sclerite semicircular with microtrichia on surface ( Fig. 44 ); ribbon like sclerite with short lobe or area beneath secondary gonopore covered with small trichia ( Fig. 44 ), ventral right sclerite fusiform with trichia on surface ( Fig. 52 ).

Female: Similar in structure and coloration to male, but larger and slightly robust and abdomen is pale brown. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: First gonapophysis: With broad apical grooved region ( Fig. 65 ). Second gonapophysis: As in Fig. 75 . Dorsal labiate plate with small sclerite caudal to sclerotized rings ( Fig. 87 ). Posterior wall with rounded interramal lobes ( Fig. 99 ). Dorsal structure small and medial process arrow-like ( Fig. 99 ).

Geographic distribution. Nearctic, Canada and United States ( Fig. 108 ) (Schwartz 2008).

Plant associations. Poaceae ( Calamagostris canadensis ) ( Carvalho & Fontes 1981, Schuh 2002–2014). New records: Asteraceae ( Solidago canadensis ), Poaceae (Achnatherum) , Rosaceae (Rubus) and Cyperaceae (Carex) .

Discussion. This species resembles Collaria villiersi by black coloration, but differs by antennal segments with short semi-erect spines, hemelytra brownish with a dark spot, and genitalia of male and female.
