Antennae 7 - segmented, the third antennomere the longest. Left mandible (Fig. 2) with two molars, five incisors, and two additional teeth, one next to incisor 5 (y sensu Watson 1956) and the other one on anterior margin below molars (k). Right mandible (Fig. 1) without molars, with five incisors and two additional teeth, a large one on posterior margin (y) and a small one on anterior margin below level of left molars (k); mandibular formula: L 1 + 2 3 4 5 y k a b, R 1 + 2 3 4 5 y k 0. Labium (Figs. 3 - 4) reaching first coxa, prementum almost as long as wide, with one long seta on each side (0.4 mm) and 3 – 5 spines at articulation with palp; anterior margin strongly convex and crenulated, with one spine on each concavity; lateral margins with 16 – 20 setae at widest portion. Labial palp (Fig. 3) with 7 (30 %), 8 (40 %), or 9 (30 %) long setae (0.9 mm the longest); distal margin bilobate, both lobes acute and straight, the internal one 1.53 times longer than the external. Thorax. Prothorax dorsally brown, dorsal 0.5 of sides darkish brown. Meso- and metathorax blackish with pale areas on metathoracic margins. Legs pale with following dark pattern: a basal dorsal spot on meso- and metacoxae, a basal and subapical band on all femora, and an apical band on all tibiae. Wing pads reaching S 3. Abdomen. Dorsally pale brown; S 1 – 8 with paired lateral dark spots as follows: confluent at posterior 0.5 on S 1; almost complete on S 2; on the anterior 0.5 and decreasing posteriorly in intensity on S 3 – 8. S 10 apical 0.5 darkened. Male opercular apophyses acute (Fig. 8), as long as 1.3 times S 10 length. Valves of ovipositor (Fig. 10) pale brown, not reaching apex of S 10. Male cercus 0.55 ± 0.05 times as long as S 10 length (Figs. 7 – 8), blackish; female cercus 0.45 ± 0.05 times as long as abdominal S 10 length, blackish, apex pale (Figs. 9 – 10). Caudal lamellae nodate (type D sensu Corbet 1999), color pattern as in Figs. 5 – 6. Dorsal margin of lateral caudal lamella with 40 – 60 stiff setae, extending along 0.4 its length; ventral margin with 5 – 10 setae, extending along about 0.5 its length. Dorsal margin of medial caudal lamella with 4 stiff setae, extending along about 0.4 of its length; ventral margin with 17 setae, extending along about 0.5 of its length. Remainder of caudal lamellae margins with longer thin hairs. Measurements (mm, n = 5). Total body length (without caudal lamella): 30.67 ± 0.94. Head: max. width: 4.25 ± 0.06, max. length: 2.2 ± 0.08. Antenna: total length: 2.3, the third antennomere the longest. Prementum: max. width: 2.7 ± 0.07, max. length: 2.66 ± 0.05.
