Diagnosis and Notes
The wing is greyish with a series
of somewhat vague pale spots: one over the cross-vein from the costa to vein M,
and extending below the radial cells to just beyond the second radial cell;
one at the base of cell m1, another small spot in the middle of cell m; and
rounded spots in the cubital cell and two in the anal cell. The base of the
wing pale, the second radial cell all dark. The female AR is 1.48-1.66, the
SD 3,5,7,9,11-15. The male genitalia are very like those of kibunensis,
the ninth sternite membrane bare.
The figures are from Callot, Kremer, Molet & Bach (1968).
