Large and robust cicadellines; head and thorax mostly black, forewings red with maculae and apical portion dark brown to black; crown slightly produced anteriorly, forming approximately a right angle with frons in lateral view, anterior margin not carinate; pronotum wider than head with lateral margins convergent anteriorly; female sternite VII with median longitudinal fold, posterior margin with narrow and deep concavity, lateral margins well produced posteriorly; teeth of second valvulae of ovipositor gradually declivous posteriorly. The following diagnostic characteristics of the male genitalia are based only on the type­species: aedeagus cylindrical and elongate, shaft with base directed anteriorly and then curving gradually posteriorly, with apical pair of processes; paraphyses with stalk longer than rami; subgenital plates with apex broadly round.
