Description. Head (Fig. 14 A–D) ochraceous; postclypeus longer than vertex in dorsal view; apex of vertex with tuft of brown hairs; compound eye black; ocellus ochraceous. Distance between lateral ocellus and corresponding eye slightly longer than distance between lateral ocelli. Lateral part of face brown. Rostrum brown, extending to apex of mid coxae.
Pronotum (Fig. 14 C) ochraceous, without distinct marks. Mesonotum (Fig. 14 C) ochraceous, slightly narrower than pronotal collar; with dark longitudinal fasciae laterally in dorsal view; cruciform elevation ochraceous. Ventral surface of thorax dark brown.
Legs (Fig. 14 G) mostly dark brown; fore femur with primary spine prostrate, nearly lying flat; secondary and subapical spines erect; secondary spine sharp and short; subapical spine broadened, nearly flat. Fore wing (Fig. 14 A–B) with basal half mostly brown, basal cell light yellow, apical half hyaline; basal membrane of fore wing and base of hing wing red.
Abdomen (Fig. 14 A–B) cylindrical and ochraceous in dorsal view. Timbal cover (Fig. 14 F) fuscous, short and more or less triangular, with apex rounded; timbal with eight ribs and seven intercalary ribs, caudal five ribs fused at base. Ventral surface of abdomen ochraceous. Male operculum (Fig. 14 E) blackish brown, short, falcate; tympanum exposed; opercula widely separated from each other.
Male genitalia (Fig. 15 A–D). Pygofer barrel-shaped in ventral view; dorsal beak long, protruding upwards in lateral view; basal lobe of pygofer short, with apex rounded; upper lobe of pygofer a little short, digitate and curved upwards in lateral view; distal shoulder remarkably convex near upper lobe, forming somewhat large triangular process in lateral view. Clasper in ventral with median clasper process long, digitate, apical half slightly curved inward; lateral clasper lobe short and rounded. Prominent lobe-like process at both sides of base of aedeagus long, digitate. Aedeagus somewhat truncate subapically in ventral view; eight spine-like processes apically and subapically, which are all curved inwards in lateral view. Posterior margin of sternite VII rounded.
Female pygofer with dorsal beak slender; posterior margin of sternite VII with large median incision.
