Male genitalia ( Fig. 57). Uncus broad, rounded, constricted basally; socius vestigial; gnathos long; valva elongate, rounded terminally; sacculus slender, curved distally; transtilla in complete, consisting of pair of slender, thorny labides, each broad, oval, finely thorny; aedeagus short, pistol-shaped, bent at 1/3, with two long, thin and curved cornuti, and five short cornuti.

Remarks. Described from 5 specimens of which the lectotype and 3 male paralectotypes are present in the collection of RMCA. The lectotype was selected by Aarvik in 1998 but was not published until the present paper. The species belongs to Clepsis Guenée, 1845 , subgenus Siclobola Diakonoff, 1947 , but it is not closely related to either of the two previous species.
