Remarks.

In Macau, adults seem to be active only in late spring and range in total length 4-5 mm and 1.5-2 mm in maximum width. Like in its congeneric species above, individuals are active both during the daytime and at night, when they are readily attracted to artificial lights. No information is available on its larval food plant(s).
