Diagnosis
. Antennal pedicel constricted basally; both wings with numerous cross-veins throughout; forewing subcostal veinlets with 1–3 semi-regular rows of cross-veins in basal half of wing, 0–1 row in distal half; forewing with single row of cross-veins between RA and RP; forewing RP mostly straight; cross-veins between RA and RP behind pterostigma in both wings; both wings with 1–2 conspicuous pustules (dark markings with associated deformation of wing membrane and veins) in discal area, pterostigma lacking dark spot; both wings with gradate series obscured by irregular cross-veins, 3 gradate series when definable; Psc extending greater than 3/4 of total wing length towards apex; forewing cell

Comments
.
Joguina
contains four relatively similar species that differ only in the number and arrangement of anterior and posterior marginal cross-veins and in the position and number of dark wing pustules. The distinctive features of this genus are the single row of cross-veins between RA and RP basally, one to many irregular rows of cross-veins of anterior and posterior marginal cross-veins, and 1–2 round pustules in the wing while the pterostigmata are unmarked.
Joguina
is restricted to South-East Asia.
