Diagnosis. Body dark brown, forewing dark with paler sub-basal area. Antennae 8-segmented. Ocellar III short, outside the ocellar triangle. Pronotum with some transverse lines, about 20 strong discal setae; posteroangular setae long, about 60% as long as pronotum. Metanotal sculpture transverse at anterior but almost striate near posterior, median setae near anterior margin; campaniform sensilla present. Forewing first vein with 4–5 distal setae. Abdominal tergite I fully reticulate, II–IV with no lines reaching campaniform sensilla or setae S1; tergite VIII comb long, complete but irregular; pleurotergites with several discal setae; sternites V–VII with about 15 discal setae in irregular transverse row, almost two rows laterally.
