is unequivocal and supported by the presence of several synapomorphic features diagnostic for that tribe, including: head broader than pronotum, crown short, ocelli on face distant from dorsal margin and well separated from eyes, lateral frontal sutures present and extended to ocelli; pronotum in dorsal view with anterior margin not extended anteriad of eyes; chaetotaxy of front and middle legs strongly reduced; forewing appendix broad and extended to wing apex.

The forewing venation of the only available specimen is poorly delimited but the visible parts suggest that the venational pattern in this genus is similar to that exhibited by most modern genera of the tribe, i.e., only two closed anteapical cells are present and the appendix borders only two apical cells rather than three as in some genera from South Asia and Madagascar (
