Drepanosticta amboinensis

Male : A medium-sized Drepanosticta with a dark colour pattern. Head similar to D. moluccana, with pale bluish-white labrum and mandibles; the anterior one-third of the labrum is dark, and the remaining parts of the head are mostly black. The prothorax is similar to D. moluccana but somewhat darker. The synthorax is predominantly dark brown to black, lacking distinct pale markings; the metepisternum and metepimeron are only slightly paler. Legs are dark with yellowish areas, and wings are hyaline with brown venation and brown pterostigma. The abdomen is mainly dark brown. Segment 8 is paler than the remaining terminal segments. Male anal appendages are distinctive: the superior appendages are slightly longer than the inferior appendages, and differ from D. moluccana by lacking a distinct subterminal constriction, although the tips are turned inward and somewhat broadened. Female : Similar to the male, but with paler abdominal markings that are more extensive. The last abdominal segments are short, and the valves and terminal appendages do not extend beyond the level of the anal appendages.
