Diagnosis
This species is superficially similar to
Panorpa obliqua
Carpenter, 1945
, especially in the V-shaped marginal spot and pterostigmal band, but can be readily differentiated by the following characters: 1) wings with less dense markings, and basal band with a small anterior spot not reaching anterior margin (cf. more dense markings, and basal band with a large anterior spot reaching anterior margin); 2) male parameres bifurcated with a delicate and short ventral branch, and a strong dorsal branch reaching middle of gonostylus (cf. unfurcated and only reaching apex of gonocoxites); and 3) female medigynium with axis longer than posterior arms (cf. shorter).
