Wing shape peculiar ; fore wing slightly falcate, outer margin deeply excised between the apex and the end of vein 4, then strongly convex as far as the much rounded internal angle ; hind wing outer margin very convex between the apex and the end of vein 3, concave between veins 3 and ib, and with a wide, spatulate tail at the end of vein ib, inner margin concave between ib and the end of ia. Wing venation (Text-fig. 253). Male genitalia (Text-fig. 68). (I had at my disposal only one specimen, of which the abdomen had been dorsally mutilated by a parasite, hence I cannot accurately describe the uncus.) Uncus subrectangular with rounded angles (?) ; no subunci ; tegumen narrow ; vinculum pro- longed to form a very large rounded saccus ; lower fultura attached to the middle of the valves, which are oblong with rounded apices ; penis elongate, subcylindrical, widely open on the dorsal surface of the internal portion, vesica armed with numerous cornuti, giving it a shagreened appearance ; distal edge of uncus and apices of valves pilose.
