Description
Summary:Voconia pallidipes Stål, 1866 Figs 1–2, 3C, 8, 10, 13–14, 18 Voconia pallidipes Stål, 1866b: 165. Diagnosis Distinguished from most other species of Voconia by the tuberculate and coarsely granulose head and pronotum, tuberculate lateral protrusion of the buccula, the anterolateral angles of the pronotal collar with many (more than two) setigerous tubercles, and the abducted corium with the proximal half entirely yellow and distal half dark with distal yellow spot. This species resembles another Australian species, V. grandioculata sp. nov., in coloration but is easily distinguished by its larger size (10.5–11.3 mm long), smaller eyes and ocelli (ocellus does not occupy half-length of postocular region), M-Cu cell partially or entirely yellow, membranal veins forming Cu-An 1 and M-Cu cells mostly or entirely yellow, and yellow clavus with a dark medial spot.

Description Male (Figs 8, 10) BODY LENGTH. 10.5–11.3 mm; macropterous. COLORATION. Head (Fig. 3C): dark brown; postocular region with pale patches adjacent to lateral ocellar margin; labium lighter than head, yellow. Thorax: as head; scutellum dark with contrasting yellow apical spine.
