Diagnostic characters. Among species with strongly haired wing membrane, uniformly colored abdomen, no spur on foretibial scale, and base of superior volsella without microtrichia P . ( Pe .) daitokeleum can be distinguished by having the fourth tarsomere of the foreleg longer than the third, mid and hind tibia each with two combs, AR about 0.90, and the gonostylus conspicuously small.
