Ventroapical row of 8–9 stout, black spines on first four femora; 6–7 longer spines on 3rd femur. Subapical (distal) spines on first four tibiae missing. One erect anteromedial hair on 3rd tibia. Hind trochanter with 1–2 pale hairs on ventral side. Pulvilli shorter than last tarsal segment.
Wing. Fourth costal section 0.5 times as long as third costal section. Cross-vein R-M before 1/3 of discal cell. Pterostigma fully coloured. Hairs on tegula missing.
Abdomen (already dissected). Viewed obliquely from front tergites (T1,2) brownish pollinose. Hairs dispersed, short and weakly developed. Laterally 6–7 dark spines on first tergite.
Genitalia. Surstyli subsymmetrical, with little branches in ventral view; ST8 with m.a. as wide as 1/3 of its width ( Fig. 28E View FIGURE 28 ). SES uncertain; gonopods equal in length, IG hairy at tip, OG with hairs along medial edge in a row ( Fig. 28B View FIGURE 28 ); phallic guide with six appendices projecting to different directions; phallus trifid, at least one branch with comb-like ornament ( Figs 28A, B View FIGURE 28 ).
Female—Unknown.
Distribution — South Africa.
