Female imago. Body length ca. 7 mm (from anterior margin of head to posterior margin of subanal plate); general coloration brown (Fig. 1).</p><p>Head widened posteriorly (Fig. 2). Compound eyes large, on lateral sides of head, median space between eyes wide.Antennae length ca. 0.7 mm; scape and pedicel nearly cylindrical, length ratio about 1: 2; flagellum slender, length ca. 0.5 mm, slightly shorter than eyes.</p><p>Thorax. Anterior paracoxal suture of mesothorax complete; basisternum longitudinal, constricted medially; furcasternal protuberances contiguous (Fig. 2). Fore leg length ca. 3.4 mm (Figs 3A, B); length ratio of profemur: protibia: protarsus = 1.0: 0.6: 1.0; length ratio of protarsal segments from I to V = 1.0: 0.9: 0.5: 0.3: 0.3; claws paired and dissimilar. Middle leg length ca. 4.7 mm (Figs 3C–E); length ratio of mesofemur: mesotibia: mesotarsus = 1.0: 0.5: 0.8; length ratio of mesotarsal segments from I to V = 1.0: 0.9: 0.7: 0.5: 0.5; claws paired and dissimilar. Hind leg length ca. 4.9 mm (Fig. 3F); length ratio of metafemur: metatibia: metatarsus = 1.0: 0.8: 1.1; length ratio of hind-tarsal segments from I to V = 1.0: 1.0: 0.6: 0.4: 0.4; claws paired and dissimilar.</p><p>Wings hyaline, veins brown. Fore wing length ca. 7.7 mm (Fig. 4); costal brace strongly arched; Sc and RA simple; RS forked at basal 1/4 of fore wing; iRS independent; MA forked at middle of its length; iMA independent; MP forked asymmetrically, approaching basally to RS base; MP 1 with distal veinlets posteriorly; iMP present, independent, with distal veinlet posteriorly; MP 2 with several anterior and three posterior distal veinlets; CuA simple; cubital field with five unforked veins running from CuA to basitornal margins; CuP short, with crossvein with AA and relatively distal crossvein with CuA. AA short, without distal veinlets. Hind wing length ca. 2.4 mm (Fig. 5); costal projection poorly protruded, rounded apically, located near wing base; area between Sc and C broader proximally, abruptly narrowing afterwards; RS forked at basal 1/3 of its length; iRS independent; MA forked distally to RS fork; iMA independent; MP forked at middle of its length; iMP independent; CuA, CuP, and AA simple.</p><p>Abdomen. Abdominal segments short, broad (Fig. 6). Sternum VII with subgenital plate rounded apically, extending to half-length of sternum VIII.
