Forewing length: male 24–27 mm (mean (n = 6) 25.32 mm, SD = 1.042); female 21– 27 mm (mean (n = 11) 25.32 mm, SD = 1.496). Records.

The nominate race of this distinctive species is very widespread throughout arid areas of Africa, with separate subspecies recognized in parts of Arabia and South Africa (Ackery et al. 1995).
