A brief description of the male external morphology (wing pattern and head) was given by Vasilenko (2009). Since sexual dimorphism in L. (M.) venustata is expressed mainly in the structure of antennae, the description of the remaining external features is suitable for both sexes, however, below we provide the detailed description of the female morphology with additions and clarifications to the description of the male genitalia morphology.
