The tergite on the second gaster segment is very highly domed, which causes the remaining gasteral segments to curl down and forward.

The abdomen is pink with a transverse orange-red band over the first tergite, and a narrow median longitudinal streak on the fourth somite.

Shattuck further notes that populations found throughout the Northern Territory and South Australia have reduced pubescence on the first gastral tergite, but this is different elsewhere.
24.
In the middle of an axis was clearly seen, which constituted about half the width of a tergite and gave him a three-lobed shape.
25.
The scape and pedicel of the antenna, and the tergite of the metasoma is 0.6 times as long as the width of the apex.
26.
The ophisthosoma ( the abdomen ) is composed of 12 segments, each consisting of a fused upper plate ( tergite ) and bottom plate ( sternite ).
27.
Females have a hooked appendage on the seventh tergite, used to anchor the abdomen against a floral calyx when cutting into the ovary of the host plant.
28.
This group is distinctive in having the combination of abdominal segment ( tergite ) strongly narrowed subbasally and having the hind tibial spurs strongly curved and largely glabrous.
29.
They resemble females in most markings, except their tergite 2 has more yellow lateral hairs than the female whose tergite 2 has black edges and few yellow lateral hairs.
