An impressed area more or less in the middle of the mesopleuron. The ‘base’ of the triangle is aligned with the pronotal-mesopleural suture line; the ‘hypotenuse’ of the triangle extends from the ventral margin of the subalar pit to the middle of the pronotal–mesopleural suture line (the ventral endpoint of the base of the traingle); the ‘axis’ of the triangle extends from the dorsal margin of the subalar pit and extends to the dorsal endpoint of the pronotal–mesopleural suture line (also the dorsal endpoint of the base of the triangle). The dorsal (‘axis’) and ventral (‘hypotenuse’) margins of the triangle range from distinctly impressed to rounded and only slightly impressed.
