Mesonotum white in ground colour; each lobe of scutum with large pale brown markings, marking on anterior lobe bilaterally divided by narrow white line, marking on lateral lobe divided in two by narrow white transverse line; scutellum pale, antero-lateral corner brown; postnotum pale. Metanotum pale brown, anterior lobe paler, lateral lobe with white spot posteriorly; antero-lateral corner of scutellum brown. Meso- and metapleurites pale brown except membranous region white.
