Sweep sample, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 2013-09-10. I know of nothing like it from temperate North America. It resembles the descriptions of east Asian species like
Siphunculina stackelbergi Duda, 1933 and
S. nidicola Nartshuk, 1971.
Setulae on head and thorax pale. Frontal triangle clearly shorter than frons, mostly shining, with longitudinal median sulcus. Pollinose area around ocelli in an hourglass shape. Ocellar and postocellar setae slightly convergent. Second costal sector about half as long as third.
