Male.Head: Light pink, eyes bordered posteriorly by black scales; antenna opaque yellow; labial palpus small, dorsally with darker scales. Thorax: Pink, interspersed with beige scales. Legs: Light pink, vestiture long, tarsus pale brown, tarsal spurs relatively long, clothed in pink scales except naked, finely-pointed apical tip. Forewing dorsum: Forewing length: 20-21 mm, avg. 20.5 mm, Wingspan: 36-38 mm, avg. 37 mm, n = 2. Triangular, slight inward notch at tornus, margin convex mesally. Ground color light orange brown, medial region very sparsely speckled by dark petiolate scales. Antemedial line diffuse, faint pink, nearly straight. Postmedial line bowed inward slightly, dark brown, outward edge finely lined with pale pink, especially near tornus, postmedial line angled sharply towards costa after passing Rs4. Antemedial area pink. Postmedial area darker brown orange with pale

suffusion near wing margin, medial area lighter orange with pink suffusion, especially along postmedial line. Discal spot a small black, elongated mark. Forewing ventrum: Similar to dorsum but postmedial line very faint; antemedial line absent; deeper orange overall with reduced pink suffusion. Hindwing dorsum: Coloration as for forewing dorsum; well-defined postmedial line lacks outer pink edging. Hindwing ventrum: Follows same pattern as forewing ventrum but pinker, lighter overall. Abdomen: As for genus, coloration as for thorax, but less pink. Genitalia: (Figs 13, 14) n = 2. Tegumen narrow, rectangular. Vinculum ovoid with small pointed projection ventrally between saccular bases of valves. Uncus small, triangular. Gnathos as two

heavily-sclerotized, two-pronged processes. Valves simple, bent upward, saccular edge with mesal lobe, base of valve with elongated, trumpet-shaped processes, process of left valve longer than that of right; base of valves with long, thick deciduous setae. Juxta fused to phallus, with elongate, flattened ventral process connecting phallus-juxta complex to base of valves. Phallus very elongated, curved, downturned, terminus with hook-like backwardly-angled process, base of phallus with elongated lobe. Female. Unknown.
