A, B. Forewing with unpigmented patch extending around bases of Rs1 to M3 and another patch around primary M fork; Sc forked; R1 unforked; sc-r crossvein reaching R beyond fork; Rs veins all ‘sessile’; Rs4 to apex. Hindwing with Sc and R1 separate and parallel from base with cross vein sc-r at mid-length, both veins running parallel to costa in female but coalescing toward costa in male; crossvein inter-Rs unmelanised; Rs3 and Rs4 free; Rs4 to apex; 1A+2A forming a loop to CuP but not reaching to anal margin; 2–3 frenular bristles. Sexual dimorphism evident along costal area of both fore-and hindwing; the male wing being thickened with a conspicuously specialised (surely glandular) zone, staining strongly with acid fuchsin; characterised on both upper and lower surfaces by numerous circular setal bases from each of which a very slender seta arises, the whole area being overlain with linear scales (

Lateral sclerites of paired ‘terminal papillae’ (assumed to be attributable to Segment 10) roughly equidimensional, almost circular in outline; set with a regular array of stiff setae. Genital chamber with a short thickened ‘papilla’ encircling the base of the ductus spermathecae, archway-shaped, orientated anteriorly in relation to insertion of the ductus; contiguous ventrally with a short thickened region over the entrance to the bursa. Spermatheca relatively short, of three distinct sections; a short very thick-walled basal duct, slightly sinuous, about the same length as the height of the ‘papilla’, leading into a slightly expanded thin-walled bulb; a short extremely narrow section connecting this ductus section to the base of utriculus, with its walls minutely papillated; an elongate (4.5x longer than wide) thin-walled utriculus, a parallel-sided cylinder with irregularly spaced septum-like constrictions, utriculus tapering abruptly at distal end where the lagena is inserted; lagena narrow, tubular, loculate, about two thirds the length of utriculus and terminating in a short filament. Corpus bursae small, simple, lacking any sclerotised adornment.
