Measurements:
ɗ: body length: 4.5–5.0; head width (incl. eyes): 1.3–1.5; head length: 0.7–0.9. Ψ: body length: 5.0–6.0; head width (incl. eyes): 1.4–1.6; head length: 0.8–0.9.
Disk of head black. Pronotum black anteriorly. Forewing generally yellowish brown with black patches, claval area black (

Male pygofer with macrosetae subapically; subgenital plate slightly shorter than pygofer in lateral view (
Figs 26, 30
). Aedeagus with atrial processes hook-like in lateral view; apical processes about one third length of shaft (
Figs 27–28

Etymology:
The species name refers to the hook-like anterior processes of the aedeagus.

Remarks:
This species is similar to
B. trimaculatus
Li & Wang
, but can be distinguished from the latter by the pattern of black patch on the vertex, the shorter apical aedeagal processes, and the hook-like anterior processes near the middle of the aedeagus.
