(

).
Female genitalia (
Fig. 113
). Papilla analis and apophyses slender; sterigma rather short, broad; sclerite of antrum short, weakly extending proximally in middle; ductus bursae broad; signa paired, relatively large.
Remarks. Described from the female
holotype
only. The generic position of this species is uncertain. The female genitalia show that it does not fit in its original genus,
Eucosma
Hübner, 1823
. In spite of this, we prefer leaving it in the original genus until more data are available.
