Update diagnosis: Head with vertex narrowed, bilobed, raised and distinctly emarginate medially ( Figs.1 View Figure 1 , 2A View Figure 2 , 3B View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ).Forewings with their proximal part half yellowish to brown, basally with a large club-shaped hyaline area between vein R and vein M+CuA; with large irregular dark brown spots from base of Pterostigma to CuP ( Figs. 10 View Figure 10 A-B, 10D-G) or present only from M+CuA to CuP ( Figs.2 View Figure 2 B-C,4B,10C).A small dark brown spot at the base of the Pterostigma and this one with its transverse veins pigmented along its entire length ( Figs.2 View Figure 2 B-C,7-9).Hindwings with their proximal part half yellowish to brown, with two hyaline areas almost elliptic ( Figs.2G View Figure 2 , 4C View Figure 4 , 11 View Figure 11 ). Phallosomal arch narrow and widening at the ends, anteriorly with a U-shaped area, then with a small transverse part, almost straight, posteriorly elongated vertically, ending in an almost elliptical area, with convex inner margin and blunt outer margin ( Fig. 2J View Figure 2 ). Endophallus heart-shaped, radular sclerites with small denticles, more pronounced in midline ( Fig. 2J View Figure 2 ). Hypandrium U-shaped, more sclerotized on the sides ( Fig. 2I View Figure 2 ). Ninth sternum with a v-shaped recess in the middle of the posterior margin and a deep recess in the anterior region, giving rise to two similar areas, almost elliptical and anteriorly open ending in a membranous area ( Fig. 4E View Figure 4 ). Gonapophyses with short, blunt end- ed heel, distally culminated, with v2 heavily sclerotized, with three setae on outer lobe; V3 weakly sclerotized, swollen and elongated ( Fig. 4G View Figure 4 ).
