Diagnosis. Adult (Figs. 3, 7) wingspan 16.5‒18.5 mm. This species can be distinguished from its congeners by the quadrate uncus lobe and the juxta with a sharply tipped process exceeding posterior margin in the male genitalia (Fig. 11).

Female genitalia (Fig. 19). Eighth sternite obtuse on posterior margin. Apophyses posteriores about twice length of apophyses anteriores. Antrum membranous, sub-rectangular, wider than long. Ductus bursae wrinkled, longer than corpus bursae, with numerous conic spines in posterior half; ductus seminalis slender, arising from about posterior 1/4 of ductus bursae, with dense spinules on inner wall. Corpus bursae ovate; signum small, subrectangular, located posterior to middle, with a triangular process arising from its posterior margin.

Distribution. China (Shaanxi, Sichuan).
