Temporals consisting of inner and outer verticals and postorbitals. Tentorium especially long and narrow in female, stipes apparently normal. Cibarial pump broadest in middle, with concave anterior margin and well developed cornua. Clypeus with several setae. Labellae extremely elongate, half to more than 3 / 4 as long as wing, with short setae for full length, wider than length of second palpomere in female, more narrow in male. Antepronotal lobes broad, collar­like, not medially narrowed, with a few lateral setae. Acrostichals numerous, starting in front; anterior acrostichals long, posterior short; dorsocentrals irregularly biserial, numerous; several prealars; 1 supraalar present.

Sensilla campaniformia about 8 basally and 8 apically on brachiolum, 3 below setae on brachiolum; 1 present basally on subcosta, 1 on RM and 1 basally on R 1. Front leg ratio 0.6 ­ 0.7. Front tibial spur straight; spurs of mid tibia short; hind tibia with well developed spurs; hind tibial comb consisting of numerous conspicuously long setae. Pseudospurs, sensilla chaeticae and pulvilli absent. Tergites with basal, marginal, median and lateral setae in both sexes. Anal point absent. Tergite IX of male with several; laterosternite IX with few setae. Transverse sternapodeme strongly convex, oral projections relatively weak. Phallapodeme and aedeagal lobe well developed. Virga consisting of single long spine apparently apically split with a lamella to each side. Gonocoxite well developed; superior volsella apparently absent; inferior volsella well developed. Gonostylus broadest about 1 / 3 from apex, crista dorsalis low and extending almost full length of gonostylus, megaseta normal. Female genitalia with well developed gonocoxite with several short and a few long setae. Coxosternapodeme curved, connected basal of vagina. Tergite IX divided into two setigerous protrusions. Segment X normal. Postgenital plate triangular. Cercus of moderate size. Gonapophysis VIII divided into small, but broad­based dorsomedial lobe and large ventrolateral lobe connected with dorsomedial lobe. Apodeme of apodeme lobe straight and conspicuous.
