(2) cephalic process elongate, curved and narrowing apically ( Fig. 3 C–D View Fig );
(3) head brown-black ( Fig. 3 C–D View Fig );
(4) tegmina with ground colour brown beyond nodal line, contrasting with basal partwith ground colour black and dense reticulum of blue veins and veinlets; white spots dark blue or bluish brown centrally ( Fig. 3 A View Fig ).
