| description |
This species is almost entirely brown, sometimes with a darker smoky band transversing the middle of the wings. Unlike cervina, it lacks a pale band and the pronotum is brown rather than pale. The vertex is shorter in the middle than next to the eyes. There is usually a bold dark spot on either side of a dark pronotal midline, a smaller spot in the lateral corner, and an even smaller pair of spots near the apex of the pronotum. The scutellum also tends to have a dark apex and dark lateral triangles. The female pregenital sternite is quite distinctive, being truncate rather than concave in shape; the sternite has the posterior margin broad and slightly convex, with a straight edge. Male subgenital plates are long, with the lateral margins concave on the basal two-thirds and the tips bluntly rounded. Adults are 4.0-4.5 mm long. (DeLong, 1948)
