Redescription. Male. Length of fore wing 25 mm. Fore wing brown with “chess board” pattern of dark-brown spots of various shape and size throughout all wing, fringe mottled dark-brown at veins (in thick bundles), light-brown between veins. Hind wing light-brown with poorly developed pattern of brown spots discally and postdiscally, and series of semicircular dark-brown spots along outer edge, fringe mottled dark-brown at veins (in thick bundles), light-brown between veins.

Male genitalia. Uncus completely split by deep notch, uncus arms very far apart, relatively short, strongly sclerotized; gnathos arms very short, thin; valve narrow, costal and abdominal edges almost smooth, outer edge rounded; juxta large, scaphoid, with long spiky abdominal process; saccus long, thin, cylindrical; phallus slightly shorter than valve, vesica without cornuti.

Female. Length of fore wing 28 mm. Pattern analogous to that of male but slightly dimmer and blurrier.

Female genitalia. Ovipositor short; papillae anales tapered, wide, densely covered with small spikes; anterior apophyses very short, greatly narrowing apically, posterior apophyses thicker and 3 times longer than anterior apophyses; ostium wide, cup-like, framed in strongly sclerotized W-shaped plate; ductus of bursae copulatrix short, wide; bursa copulatrix bag-like, without signa.

Diagnosis. The species clearly differs from the known species in its short arms of the uncus, very far apart from each other. From the known females, the new species differs in its W-shaped sclerite framing the ostium.

Distribution. Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay.
