(Kitaoka 1984: 303. ♀, description, figs)
Diagnosis and Notes
The wings are dark with two pale
spots, one over the cross-vein from the costa to vein m1; the other just
beyond the second radial cell, which is dark. In addition there are vague
pale spots at the wing margin in cells m2, cu and an. The female AR is 1.17;
the SD is 3-7, 11-15. The third segment of the palp is swollen with a single
large shallow sensory pit.
The male is unknown; the figure of the wing is redrawn from Kitaoka (1984).
