Description. Adult. Colouration. Straw-coloured to ochreous dorsally, whitish to yellowish ventrally. In male dark brown or black patches on vertex laterally and toruli, occiput, pronotum, on mesopraescutum in the middle, on mesoscutum with four longitudinal stripes, and a narrow dark band stretching from the edge of pronotum to forewing base and along abdomen except for whitish subgenital plate. Compound eyes brown, ocelli orange. Antennal scape and pedicel brown, flagellum almost black. Forewing transparent with brown veins and light or dark pterostigma; hindwing transparent, costal vein light brown. Fore and mid legs light brown with darker patches on femora. Metacoxa and metafemur brown to dark brown. Female ( Fig. 2 View FIGURES 1, 2 ) similar but with less expanded brown elements restricted to thorax laterally and abdomen dorsally. Sometimes forewing membrane fumate.

Structure. Anterior head margin, in dorsal view, forming 'U'-shaped cleft between large toruli. Antenna 4.06– 5.27 (4.46±0.29) times as long as head width, segment 3 2.3–3.6 times as long as segment 4. Forewing ( Fig. 6 View FIGURES 3 – 11 ) 4.43–5.57 (5.06±0.32) times as long as head width, 2.13–2.60 (2.38±0.10) times as long wide, pterostigma short and broad, ratio a/b 0.9, cell cu1 moderately high. Male proctiger 0.36–0.54 (0.43±0.07) times as long as head width. Paramere ( Figs 15 View FIGURES 12 – 19 , 23 View FIGURES 20 – 27 ) bifid, with large, broadly rounded outer lobe and moderately large inner tooth-like process. Distal portion of aedeagus ( Fig. 31 View FIGURES 28 – 35 ) weakly inflated lacking apical hook. Female terminalia ( Fig. 39 View FIGURES 36 – 43 ) long, sickle-shaped, proctiger 1.29–1.45 (1.37±0.05) times as long as head width, and 1.33–2.20 (1.78±0.25) times as long as subgenital plate.

Measurements (5 ♂, 9 ♀, in mm). Body length 4.87–6.33 (5.68±0.48), head width 0.87–1.07 (0.95±0.05), antenna length 3.87–5.27 (4.26±0.34), forewing length 4.00–5.33 (4.84±0.46), metatibia length 1.13–1.47 (1.30±0.10), male proctiger length 0.33–0.47 (0.39±0.06), paramere length 0.20–0.27 (0.25±0.03), female proctiger length 1.20–1.47 (1.34±0.08).

Fifth instar immature. Antennal segments 3/4 length ratio 1.90–3.83. Forewing pad/ antennal segment 3 length ratio 1.82–2.47. Caudal plate ( Fig. 46 View FIGURES 44 – 48 ) broadly rounded posteriorly, 1.96–2.36 times as wide as long. Distance between anterior and posterior bands of caudal plate larger than distance between posterior band and anus, measured laterally. Circumanal ring very small, transverse diameter about 6–8 times as wide as pore rows on one side, consisting of 3–4 rows.

Measurements (4 specimens, in mm). Length of antennal segment 3 0.75–1.15; forewing pad length 1.85–2.40; caudal plate length 1.30–1.60.

Etymology. From Greek δρεπανώδης = sickle-shaped, referring to the sickle-shaped female terminalia.
