Diagnosis. This species is known by the following characteristics: Median clypeal lobe trapezoidal; tergal process: submedian, with dense tuft of setae inside of shallow depression; genitalia with harpe entirely wide, with apical margin truncate; digitus short; basivolsella well delimited with narrow protuberance, without spines; aedeagal ventral valve with apex anterior to apex of dorsal one, slightly curved laterad; aedeagal dorsal valve bottle-shaped or nearly so, with two pairs of apical lobes; outer lobe very long, narrow, with apical margin rounded; apex of inner median filament aligned with apex of lobes; basal cover plate entirely narrow, with posterior margin broadly rounded.

Variation. Basivolsella elongated, with projection more or less projected.
