Etymology. The specific epithet honors Jean-Marc Pouillon who allows the study of the type specimen; it is to be treated as a noun in genitive case.

Material. A complete adult, preserved in a flattened, blurry, reddish amber piece (20 mm × 7 mm × 6 mm); holotype specimen accession number IGR.BU-058, housed in the amber collection of the Geological Department and Museum of the University of Rennes, France (IGR) .

Locality and horizon. Noije Bum Hill, Hukawng Valley, Kachin State, Myanmar; upper Albian to lower Cenomanian, mid-Cretaceous.

Forelegs with stout trochanter, femora with nine spines on outer edge, two spines on inner edge, tibia with parallel sides, probasitarsomeres with around six pairs of black and thick spines; wings elongate and narrow, forewings with costal veinlets simple before ScP and RA fusion, coloration pattern present i.e. with spots of color around crossveins and no marking near wing margin, only 3ra-rp present, scp+ra-rp1 present, RP with four branches, one inner gradate crossvein i.e. 2rp3-rp4 present; hind wings with ra-rp crossvein located proximad separation of RP1 and RP2, four RP branches, inner gradate crossveins present i.e. 2rp2-rp3, 3rp3-rp4. Male genitalia: Tergum IX short, nearly half length of tergum VIII, posteriorly concave; sternum IX bulbous; ectoproct paired, slightly elongate, bulbous, longer than tergum IX; gonocoxites X paired, digitiform, with spinous tip, slightly sclerotized, curved upward and directed laterally; gonostylus X digitifrom, distinctly curved dorsad.

Protibia long, ca. 1.47 mm, slender, not thinning in distal third (i.e. with parallel sides), inner edge with row of stout prostrate setae, sharply curved distad and numerous thin setae, dorsal and lateral edges with sparse sedation of variable length (Fig. 2D). All protarsomeres covered with fine setae; probasitarsomere longest, with numerous spines on ventral edged (Fig. 2C), II-IV tarsomeres with a pair of stout spines (Fig. 2C); lengths of tarsomeres from base to apex (in mm) 0.31, 0.09, 0.07, 0.08, ca. 0.14; claws stout, curved.

Mesotibia long, ca. 2.06 mm, slender, covered with dense long setae, several long stronger setae, with distinct coloration pattern, i.e. three dark stripe (distal one at apex); all mesotarsomeres covered with fine setae, spines or strong setae present on ventral surface; first tarsomere the longest; combined length of tarsomeres ca. 1.01 mm; claws small, curved. Metacoxa similar to mesocoxa. Metafemur long, ca. 1.4 mm, slender, covered with dense long setae.

Forewing (Figs. 1B, 2E, 3) with conspicuous coloration pattern along crossveins and pterostigma, elongate, ca. 7.07 mm long, ca. 1.84 mm wide. Trichosors present nearly along whole wing margin (absent basally); thin setae sparsely present on dorsal and ventral surfaces of longitudinal veins, but absent on crossveins. Humeral veinlet simple; costal space thin; all subcostal veinlets simple before ScP and RA fusion, after forked; ScP fused with RA in apical third; subcostal space with proximal crossvein (1scp-r) located slightly distad R fork; RP divided into four branches; RP1 not deeply forked; crossveins scp+ra-rap1 and 3ra-rp present; no crossvein between RP1 and RP2; 4rp2-rp3 present before RP2 and RP3 branching; 2rp3-rp4 and 4rp3-rp4 present; 1r-m present slightly anteriad 1mcua (Figs. 2E, 3); 1rp-ma slightly distad M fork; 4rp4-ma present between anterior branch of MA and stamp of RP4; M deeply forked, 4ma-mp present; Cu deeply forked, 1mp-cua slightly distad M fork, 3mp-cua present between MP and anterior branch of CuA, 2cua-cup present; 1cup-a1 located anteriad CuP or A1 forks; A1 forked near wing margin; 1a1-a2 crossvein present; A2 with several branches; A3 present simple(?).
