The species can be separated from other East Asian
Corynoneura
by having antenna with 10 flagellomeres, apically acute, AR 0.56–0.61, sternapodeme inverted V-shaped, phallapodeme strongly curved, no inferior volsella, gonostylus with small inner lobe in subapical part.
Additional description and corrections.
Abdominal tergites with few setae, 0 on T I, 2 on each of T II– IX, while in the original description
Sasa & Suzuki (2001)
mentions abdominal tergites with small number of setae, 0 on I, 1 on II to IV, 2 on VI and VII, 1 on VIII, and 2 on IX. The ninth tergite without an anal point like Y-shaped ridge on the ventral side. The ventral Y-shaped ridge mentioned by Sasa apparently is the phallapodeme.

Sternapodeme inverted V-shaped; coxapodeme 30 µm long; attachment point with phallapodeme placed in caudal position of sternapodeme and ventrally directed; phallapodeme 75 µm long, strongly curved with projection for joint with sternapodeme placed pre-lateral. Gonocoxite 80 µm long with 4 long setae apically. Gonostylus 38 µm long; megaseta very short. HR 2.1, HV 3.3. The wing and hypopygium of
