are different from typical representatives of the genus. Both show a highly specialized structure of sternite 7 including asymmetrical distal extensions and a distinct proximal, twolobed plate that reaches below the subapical sternite. They further display some unusual structures of the phallus, including a short coecum penis and apical thorn-like process(es). Both species appear to lack the conspicuous bicolored scales (typically dark with a light tip) on their forewings seen in other species of
