Male. The males from southern China confirm in most details the original description by Yan and Ye (1977), except for AR = 2.65–2.90. In the original description the AR was given as 0.13. However, this AR was calculated using the method for calculating the antennal ratio for larvae (J.S. Yan pers. com.).

Distribution. Previously known from Hebei Province in Palaearctic China. The present material was collected in Guizhou and Yunnan Provinces in Oriental China.
