The thorax is characterized by the presence of setae on the propleura, a bare prothorax and metathoracic setae in a 0+3 arrangement, with the first pair of suture setae lying closer to the suture than to the second pair. The posterior and anterior metathoracic setae are almost the same length, and the hairs between them are placed in more than four rows. The wings have short and monochromatic pterostigmas and spine-like bristles on the costal vein longer than the hair. The middle pair of legs has one well-developed spur on each tibia.For terms see Morphology of Diptera.
