Forewings colourless, but a large dark mark around first subcostal sector; very faint marks around M-Ms4 and R-Rs1 forks; veins colourless, base of Sc+R without dark spots. Hindwings colourless. In profile junction of vertex and face rounded; subantennal processes close to, but not connected to margins of facial carinae; antennal bases close to margins of facial carinae; rostrum surpassing post trochanters. Forewings with Sc+R fork well before middle of wing; basal median cell narrow, M leaves Sc+R at base of that cell; basal cell between Sc+R and M nearly as wide as basal median cell; Ms1 unbranched, a tiny triangle at base of Ms1.
