Closely similar to Oecetis radonensis , but male with inferior appendages distally more strongly tapered to sharper apices, a row of setae on the inner margin sub-apically; abdominal segment X triangular; and phallus of medium length with paramere, in lateral view, strongly arched dorsally. Description . Male. Wings with vestiture short; forewing with a broad scale patch. Anterior wing length, 4.6–4.7 mm.Abdominal tergites II–IV darkly sclerotised; segment IX strongly excavated ventrally, with a pair of small apico-dorsal papillae; segment X broad-based, triangular in dorsal view, elongate and slender in lateral view. Genitalia, see figs 18–20. Pre-anal appendages well separated, in dorsal view, triangular. Phallus of moderate length, apically beak-like in lateral view; paramere strongly twisted at base in ventral view, in lateral view strongly arched dorsally. Inferior appendages in lateral view tapered towards apex, in ventral view stout with apices convergent, short setae on inner subapical margin, basi-dorsal pouch small and rounded. Distribution.
