(Figs 1A–H, 2A) Color alive: Head yellowish brown with antennae dark brown, thorax and abdomen pale green. Legs pale yellowish brown except distal 1/9 of tibiae including tarsi dark brown. SIPH dark brown. Cauda pale. Color of macerated specimens: Head yellowish brown and antennae dark brown. Rostrum pale, except the tip of URS dark brown. Thorax yellowish brown and abdomen entirely pale. Legs pale except distal 1/9 of tibiae and tarsi dark brown. SIPH dark brown and cauda pale except extreme end. Morphology: Body spindle shaped. Head: smooth on ventrum and dorsum including three pairs of acuminate setae. Antennal tubercle well developed with 3–5 setae on both side, frons U–shaped with four setae on vertex, including weakly developed median tubercle. Ant.I smooth; Ant.II granulate; Ant.III weakly imbricate with short setae, bearing 40–59 secondary rhinaria irregularly spaced; Ant.IV imbricate with 12–18 setae with no secondary rhinaria; Ant.V imbricate with 8–13 setae, primary rhinarium ciliate, longest diameter of which is shorter (0.63–0.83 times) than middle width; Ant.VI imbricate with 3–7 short setae on Ant.VIb. Rostrum attaining posterior margin of mesocoxa; mandibular laminae with 4–6 setae on each side; URS longest seta 0.78–1.00 times as long as apical primary ones. Thorax: pronotum smooth with two spinal setae and one marginal seta on anterior margin. Hind coxa weakly spinulose with 6–7 acuminate setae; hind trochanter wide at base, 1.63–1.65 times as long as apical width, bearing three setae; hind femur smooth on basal 1/17, spinulose on apical 16/17 ventrally, bearing short setae, longest seta 0.43–0.48 times as long as basal width of segment; hind tibia smooth, longest seta 0.80–1.07 times as long as middle width of segment; first segment of each tarsus smooth with three setae at apex; 2HT imbricate with 10–11 setae. Abdomen: dorsum smooth, membranous with 11–13 setae on tergite III, 0.37–0.47 times as long as basal width of hind femur. SIPH swollen, weakly spinulose except smooth base, irregularly reticulated on distal end, apex flanged. Cauda elongate, triangular, ventral spinules strong and dense, in groups of one or two; dorsal ornamentation composed of ribbed imbrication.
