| description |
Ochreous pale brown, the head and pronotum have numerous small, dark brown spots speckled across. Oman (1949) depicted this species with two spots on the scutellum, along the margin with the pronotum; 2 pairs of spots flanking the upper lateral margins of the pronotum; and two smaller spots on the crown close to the pronotum. There is dense, pigmented speckling across the surface of the head and pronotum. The head is broad, rounded and moderately projected, being less than two-thirds as long as the middle basal width between the eyes and two-thirds as long as the pronotum. The veins of the elytra are faintly margined with brown, with a few brown spots between the veins. There is one large large spot on each wing on the anterior portion of the disc. The female pregenital sternite is speckled and has a wavy, sinusoidal posterior margin with a hint trace of a notch on the median lobe. Adults are 7 to 8 mm long. (DeLong 1942, Beirne 1956) |

There are several collection records online for Negosiana fraterna from Wake and Pender counties; it is unclear if these records are correct since Dmitriev does not list North Carolina for the distribution of this species. Perhaps these records are misidentified N. negotiosa. |
