Male genitalia ( Fig. 60). Uncus rather long, slender, hairy ventrosubterminally; socius broad, with long hairs; valva oval; sacculus reaching end of valva, broadest postbasally, armed with some submedian thorns dorsally; lateral parts of transtilla densely thorny; aedeagus broadest near middle where convex ventrally, tapered terminad, provided with three ventrosubterminal thorns; coecum penis rather small; caulis long, slen- der.

Remarks. Described from the male holotype only. We are including imbriculata in Epichoristodes Diakonoff, 1960 because of the great similarity of its tegumen, valva, and transtilla with the representatives of this genus.
