As for the larval generic diagnosis and description with the following additions.

Description. Larval head capsule yellowish brown, width across eyes 1.4 mm, body length 12 mm. The only mid leg on the one specimen has the remnant tibial spine about 1/3 as long as that of R. virgatus ; prosternum with pair of small sclerites immediately anterior to the large central sclerite (fig. 24). These characters may not enable separation from larvae of other species when variation within each species is known. Philorheithrus larvae also show almost no variation between the three species recognised ( Henderson and Ward, 2006).
