Protarsi about 1/2 length of protibiae. Claws 1/3 length of tarsomere 5, which is somewhat longer than tarsomeres 3 and 4 combined, and somewhat thicker than other tarsomeres.

Phallobase 1.5 times longer than parameres, tube-shaped, with a deep triangular excavation venrtobasally. Parameres strongly curved downward, at acute angle to the phallobase (in lateral view); of complex shape (Fig. 3). Apices of the parameres are separated by a constriction and there are long feebly sclerotized processes bazad of the constriction on each paramere.

and up the forest is called Upper Montane Rain Forest, or Cloud Forest, with the fog occurring during the most part of the day and the high humidity level during the year. The life cycle of the species remains unknown. Despite almost two decades of collecting in this area by P.C.G., no other specimens were found. This might be a result of a very short flying period and cryptic, probably geobiont, life style.
