Remarks. This species was described by Pruthi (1936) as a member of the Deltocephalus group ( Deltocephalini) but later Webb & Heller (1990) transferred this species to Jilinga . Xing et al. (2012) illustrated the male genitalia. It can be distinguished by the following combination of features: anal tube appendage branches short with several small teeth; subgenital plate divided by deep concavity into two lobes; apophysis of style transverse and broadened distally; aedeagal shaft wide in posterior view, with approximately 7 asymmetrical teeth on lateral margin and apex produced medially.
