Exteriorly furnished with many narrow setae often as long as the breadth of the valva and interiorly possessing a few short stiff setae in the sclerotized zone. Tegumen and uncus smoothly tapered with the uncus often notched distally. Gnathos bifid, either smooth or with weakly sclerotized processes and plates on the dorsal surface distally. Posterior ends of gnathos curved upwards (except talboti). Aedeagus weakly sclerotized without cornuti. §. Fades.
