Autogenerated Description

Body. Length 3.2–3.4 mm.

Wings. Forewing outer apical cell about 2X as long as wide.

Abdomen. 2S abdominal apodemes small, narrow, extended dorsomesad.

Male Genitalia. Pygofer lobe rounded. Pygofer dorsal appendage bifurcate near base, branches widely separated, extended to pygofer apex, straight or very slightly curved in dorsal view, straight in lateral view. Dorsal branch of pygofer dorsal appendage shorter than ventral branch. Second point of style apex well developed. Third point short toothlike. Angle between basal and third points about 90°. Dorsal apodeme of aedeagus triangular, without sclerotized connection to anal tube or pygofer appendages. Aedeagus with preatrium longer than shaft. Aedeagal shaft curved dorsad, slender in lateral view, round in cross section, smooth, with dorsal carina. +Aedeagus without dorsal process. Aedeagal apex truncate in ventral view. Aedeagus without apical vestiture. Aedeagus ventral processes placed basally, well separated from shaft, longer than shaft, divergent only at apex, simple. Aedeagus distal processes long, subapical, flattened, usually triangular.

Coloration. Dorsum yellow or white. Color pattern red or orange or brown. Vertex with large basal dark area often extended onto pronotum. Vertex midline dark. Anteclypeus pale, concolorous with rest of face. Pronotum with Y- or V-shaped medial vitta or almost entirely dark. Mesonotum pale, with dark lateral triangles. +mesonotum apex dark, contrasting with adjacent pale areas. Thoracic venter with dark mesosternum, remainder pale. Forewings with oblique vittae usully forming continuous zigzag pattern, without crossbands. Clavus with separate basal and distal vittae. Forewings with dark spot on costal margin. Forewing apical cell II with distal spot, inner apical cell with brown spot basally.
