Body light brown, head darker, darkest at apex of head, thorax lighter but shaded with brown laterally, abdominal segment IX and tube a little lighter than rest of abdomen; legs mainly yellow; antennae yellow, but segment I brown, II and VIII weakly shaded.

Antennal segment III with 1 sense cone that is often minute, IV with 2 slender sense cones, III–VIII each with pedicel; segment III longer than IV, VIII longer than VII (Fig. 35).
