The rather well preserved fossil lies in dorsal view. The head with antennae, legs, the posterior three abdominal segments and the left wings are lacking as well as the posterior regions of the right wings. Nevertheless, the preserved parts of the right wings clearly exhibit the main diagnostic features. The original corrugation is nearly completely flattened by tectonic processes but can be reconstructed by comparison with the characters of the ground plan (
