Tegmen venation; the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein and runs relatively straight from the base with just a slight arcing in the middle as it angles towards the margin, terminating on the margin ca ⅕ of the way through the tegmen length. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the tegmen and branches into two diverging veins; the first radius (R1) branches ca ⅕ of the way through the wing length, runs straight, and terminates on the margin slightly &lt;⅓ of the way through the tegmen length, and the radial sector (Rs) branches ca 2/7 of the way through the tegmen length, arcs gently as it spans through the majority of the tegmen central surface, and terminates on the margin of the distal ⅓ of the tegmen length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thin radius to media crossvein (R-M) that weakly connects the two veins. The media (M) is bifurcate with the media anterior (MA) branching near the middle of the tegmen length and media posterior (MP) branches near the distal ⅓ of the tegmen length with both veins arcing gently and running parallel/subparallel towards the tegmen margin with the media anterior terminating near the distal

The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at the length approximately midway between the splitting of the first radial and the radial sector.

Abdominal segments II through the anterior ⅔ of segment IV uniformly diverging with straight margins. The posterior ⅓ of segment IV through segment VI are subparallel, giving the abdomen a boxy appearance as these segments only slightly converge. The posterior margin of segments V and VI are slightly broader than the anterior margin of their following segment and this difference is notably more significant in segments VII and VIII which have distinct lobes projecting slightly beyond the anterior margin of the following segment as these segments narrow notably and converge towards the abdomen apex. Segments IX and X are notably narrower than the previous segments, and have converging, straight margins to the broad rounded apex.

There are two types of pinnae on the capsule surfaces; moderate to long feather-like pinnae which are found along the operculum rim and along the capsule margins (these feather-like pinnae are not as well formed as in other species with large feather-like pinnae and instead these appear more like a &quot;wet feather&quot; with the lateral frills less defined) and an addition pinna type which are short to medium length
