Redescription
. Male. Length of fore wing
19 mm
. Fore wing light-brown with “chess board” darkbrown and yellow pattern of spots of various size and shape and undulated stripes, fringe mottled brown at veins (in thick bundles), yellow between veins. Hind wing light-yellow with poorly expressed transverse light-brown band postdiscally (at radial veins), series of brown semicircular spots along wing edge, fringe mottled brown at veins (in thick bundles), yellow between veins.
Male genitalia. Uncus split to base by deep notch, halves of uncus leaf-like, wide; gnathos arms very short, thin; valve with small notch on border between basal and medium thirds of costal edge, small bump in distal third of costal edge, abdominal edge heavily curved on border between basal and medium thirds, outer edge semicircular; juxta large, scaphoid with relatively short tapered abdominal process narrowing from base to apex; saccus short, tapered, apically sharp; phallus short, slightly curved, 1/3 shorter than valve, vesica without cornuti.
Female. Length of fore wing
22 mm
. Fore wing analogous to that of male but slightly darker and more contrast. Hind wing light-brown with blurred mottled dark-brown pattern.
Female genitalia. Ovipositor short; papillae anales tapered, densely covered with small spikes; anterior and posterior apophyses very short, thick, posterior apophyses with paddle-likely widened apices, slightly longer than anterior apophyses; ostium wide, cup-like, framed with poorly sclerotized plate; ductus bursae copulatrix short, relatively wide, sclerotized; bursa copulatrix bag-like, without signa.
Diagnosis
. The species clearly differs from other representatives of the genus in its significantly lighter color, the short tapered saccus which is sharp apically. From the known females of the genus
Dolecta
the species differs by the sclerotized ductus bursae copulatrix and by the paddle-likely widened apices of the posterior apophyses.
