Diagnosis. Body medium-sized, head including eyes as wide as or slightly wider than mesonotum. Rostrum reaching or extending beyond posterior coxae. Pronotum slightly longer than head but shorter than mesonotum with pronotal collar dentate. Fore femur with primary and secondary spines large and subapical spine small. Wings hyaline, with 8 and 6 apical cells on fore wing and hind wing, respectively; fore wing with fuscous spots at bases of second and third apical cells. Male abdomen not swollen, slightly longer, shorter or equal to distance from head to cruciform elevation; timbal covers mostly concealing timbals dorsally; Male opercula with rounded angles. Uncal lobes short, fused at the base and bifurcated apically. Upper lobes of pygofer absent.

Remarks. Haphsa is similar to Meimuna Distant, 1905 , but it differs from the latter in the following characteristics: uncal lobes short, fused at the base and bifurcated apically (uncal lobes long, bifurcated in Meimuna ); male abdomen slightly longer, shorter or equal to distance from head to cruciform elevation (male abdomen distinctly longer than distance from head to cruciform elevation in Meimuna ).
