Description of the female (Figs. 1–2). Forewing length 7.0– 7.5 mm. Posterior margin of sternum 7 produced in bidentate subgenital plate, apices are claw-like in lateral view; the posterior portion is black, contrasting with the rest of the plate that is pale brown. Sternum 8 with two very small, rounded sclerites laterally to the genital opening, and a transverse band that occupies the posterior third of the segment.

Remarks. This species was described from Zhejiang Province, previously known only from the male holotype (Yang & Li 2016). New for Guangxi, our male specimens agree with the original description but with some variation. The epiproct apex has a shallow anterior indentation which is not indicated in Sivec et al. (2008), and the down projecting spine is stouter (Figs. 3–4) than illustrated for the holotype. In addition, scales of the tergum 10 central plate are relatively indistinct (Fig. 5).
