Measurements in mm: body length 1.75, wing length 1.18, wing breadth (at broadest, i.e. subapically) 0.15.
Body much fainted in alcohol, now light brown (probably dark brown when alive).
Frontal shield trapezoid, smooth and shiny. Carina only on 1/2 of facial plate. Anterior fronto-orbital pair proclinate and slightly lateroclinate, distinctly shorter than posterior one; ocellar and vertical setae strong. First flagellomere joins pedicel ventrally, first flagellomere with

Other thoracic setae: 1 anterior notopleural (posterior one present only as a small hair), 2 supra-alar (anterior one lateroclinate, posterior one upright and slightly inclinate), 1 postalar (only 1/2 as long as posterior dc and much thinner); 1 normal katepisternal pair of setae. Two rows of minute acrostichals.
Legs light brown, tarsi even paler. Fore femur without anteroventral spinules, 1 strong posteroventral seta only
Wing reduced, not only shortened, but also cubital and anal regions almost completely lost (

Hypselothyrea amputata
sp. n.
is a strongly reduced-winged species. It is probably related to
H. vanarasiensis
GUPTA
(2 pairs of dorsocentrals, wing hyaline, etc.). However, not only its wing reduction but also details of male genitalia make it easily identifiable (another note under
H. (D.) longimana
sp. n.
).
