Morphological Features

Head rounded; anterolateral margins of pronotum carinate and reflexed. Metathoracic scent-gland canal well developed, relatively straight, its apex separated from anterior margin of metapleuron by more than its width at apex. Ostiole closer to metacoxal cavity than to lateral margin of metapleuron. Evaporatorium on metapleuron completely covering ostiolar plate and reaching between coxal cavities; outer margin of metapleural evaporatorium convex. Posterior margin of sternite VII in females shallowly concave or straight medially. Color forms variable: some adults with fuscous, horseshoe-shaped pattern on pronotum and scutellum; others with two black scutellar spots.
