Head approximately as wide as pronotum. Crown slightly produced in dorsal view, anterior margin subparallel to posterior margin, coronal suture distinct. Face with lorum and frontoclypeus broad. Pronotum with anterior margin produced and posterior margin distinctly concave. Fore wing with four apical cells subequal in length, 1st and 4th apical cell slightly wider, AA and AP veins distinct. Hind wing as usual for Erythroneurini , subcostal vein present. Abdominal apodemes short to long. Sternite IX developed, bouquet-shaped, base narrow, apex broad and with median longitudinal internal ridge. Anal tube appendage usually short, footlike. Male genitalia: Pygofer with posterior margin not extended to apex of subgenital plate; with group of long hairlike microsetae at lower basal angle and several near hind margin; dorsal appendage short, sticklike, extended from dorsal inner ridge of pygofer side, immovably fused to pygofer side; ventral appendage absent. Subgenital plate usually truncate apically, with group of stout setae on outer margin near base, row of short microsetae from near base to apex, several macrosetae in oblique row medially. Style massive, branched apically, ventral branch club-shaped, curved laterad, dorsal branch lamellate, broadening towards apex; basal part thin and short; preapical lobe bearing several microsetae. Connective lamellate, bell-shaped. Aedeagal shaft tubular, usually with pair of processes on sides; preatrial process well developed, longer than shaft, dorsal apodeme moderately developed. Gonopore apical. Remarks. This genus is similar to Singapora Mahmood in body shape, length of the 4th apical cell, enlarged setae on the basal outer margin of the subgenital plate and the well developed aedeagal preatrial process, but can be distinguished from the latter by the presence of a pygofer dorsal appendage, truncate subgenital plate, shorter and branched style, and bell-shaped connective.
