In lateral view metope arcuately convex, but in central part rather straight, metoclypeal suture almost straight (Figs 1 a, 1b). Eye black, round, ocelli present. Coryphe almost twice as wide as long, anterior margin convex and weakly angular, posterior margin distinctly arcuately concave (Fig. 1 c).</p><p>Pronotum and mesonotum: Pronotum bluntly rounded, distinctly concave.

Both edges of arrow joined to two lateral keels.</p><p>Fore wings: Clavus elongate, as long as 2/3 of whole wing length. Two longitudinal veins on clavus converge at 1/3 of their length. Two transverse veins present on the clavus. Radius bifurcate (R2) after cubitus (Cu2). Costal membrane with ten transverse veins, costal cell with two transverse veins. Stigma round and black, covering 1/3 of cell, partially entering apical fragment of costal cell.

Nineteen apical cells present at apex of fore wing (Fig. 1 d). Hind wings well developed, as long as 4/5 of fore wings’ length.</p><p>Legs. Tibia triangular in lateral view with concave ventral side. Lateral margin with four lateral spines present, three of which are distinct and 1 weakly visible. Lateral margin cross-striated and covered with small, barely visible bristles.</p><p>Coloration. General coloration yellowish-brown, metope with keels distinctly red. Larteral margins of tergites of abdomen brown. Wings hyaline with brown veins. Femur coloration light brown with dark brown base, tibia coloration uniformly light brown, spines brown, darker than tibia.</p><p>Male genitalia: Pygofer with hind margin strongly convex.

Dorsal surface of phallobase with bird-head-shaped process medially. Apical aedeagal process leaf-shaped with two barely visible curved apical teeth (Fig. 1 e).</p><p>Remarks. Exphora stroinskii sp. n. is similar to other species externally, but can be distinguished from related by the pattern of black round stigma, metope lacking of brown stripes, long anal tube, shape of style, aedeagus and its processes (see the key above).</p><p>Material examined.
