The abdominal tergites are not visible dorsally, as they are covered by the hind wings. The ventral side of the specimen is visible in detail except for the basal portion of the thoracic sclerites.

Based on the shape of elongate antennomeres 8-10, the general shape of the apical maxillary palpus with elongate apical palpomere not dramatically narrower than the penultimate one, and on the length of tarsomeres 1-4 together distinctly longer than apical tarsomere, the studied specimen undoubtedly belongs to the tribe

Judging from the combination of visible morphological details of the fossil, such as shapes of the forebody, maxillary palpomeres, gonocoxites, and mandibles with developed large teeth on inner side of the cutting edge, as well as by presence of distinct grooves in front of ocelli, the species belongs to the

). Unfortunately, the condition of the specimen described here does not allow the observation of the presence of neither the anteocellar impressions nor the ocelli. The presence of impression between ocelli depends on the degree of convexity of head and can be significantly variable among genera and even among species of a species group, from indistinct to very deep. Regarding ocelli, these structures can be large and very convex, small, flattened, and indistinct, or reduced (sometimes in one genus) as in the tribe
