Diagnosis (1) Tegmina brown with a small, whitish spot along claval suture and 3 small, whitish spots on membrane ( Fig. 3A ); (2) hind wings without basal red patch ( Fig. 3A ); (3) frons regularly rounded in dorsal view, not projecting anteriorly ( Fig. 3C ), brown ( Fig. 3D ); (4) anterior tibiae slightly laminate ( Fig. 3B ); (5) abdomen not black dorsally (brown in the single specimen known, but it is possible that the original colour faded due to preservation in a fluid, e.g., ethanol) ( Fig. 3A ); (6) genital segments brown (same remark as under 5).

Measurements and ratios LT (extrapolated): ♀ (n = 1): 30.0 mm; LTg/BTg = 2.72; BV/LV = 4.46; LF/BF = 0.79.
