Type species

Orinda scapularis ( Jacobi, 1928) , by present designation.

Diagnosis

Body narrowing towards the posterior in dorsal view ( Fig. 11A ); posterior wings well developed, trilobed with veins CuA and CuP fused apically along distal ¼ and thickened ( Fig. 11D ).

The subgenus differs from Orinda (Orinda) by its well-developed hind wings (subgenus Orinda with rudimentary hind wings); from the subgenus Montorinda subgen. nov. by its body narrowing towards the posterior (parallel-sided in Montorinda ) and by the hind wings with veins CuA and CuP fused along distal ¼ and thickened (veins fused only apically in Montorinda ).
