Description.
Head: head hypognathous, with large, oval eyes; scape cylindrical, much wider than pedicel and the flagellum; compound eyes rather large, 1.1 mm long, oval; Thorax (Fig. 2A, B View Figure 2 ): pronotum saddle-shaped, 2.4 mm long, lateral lobe 2.6 mm high. Legs: meta-femur 8.1 mm long, 1.9 mm wide; meta-tibiae has three pairs of large, leaf-like spurs, and one basal and small spur, ds3 1.86 mm long, ds2 1.86 mm long, ds1 1.25 mm, ds4 0.85 mm long (Fig. 2C, D View Figure 2 ). Forewing (Fig. 1 View Figure 1 ): 14.3 mm long, 3.4 mm wide (maximum width recorded); CP distally curved and reaching anterior wing margin beyond the origin of CuA+CuPaα; ScA simple, ending in anterior margin nearly 1/4 of the wing length; ScP reaching anterior margin basal of the origin of stem RP and giving off 5 long and oblique branches ending in anterior margin; stem R long and strong, branched into RA and RP close to the middle of wing length; area between ScP and R basally narrow, getting wider after ScP reaching wing margin; RA has numerous oblique branches reaching anterior margin; RP fused with MA1 distal to the end of ScP; RP has 6 main pectinate branches and 8 terminals; M forking into MA and MP at the level of the end of ScA; MA forking into MA1 and MA2 at the level of the end of ScP; the fusion of RP and MA1 distant to the origin of MA1, MA2 distally branch; MP simple, originates at the level of the end of ScP; area between branches of RA and RP covered with simple and straight crossveins; CuA+CuPaα simple, slightly undulate, originating basal of the end of CP; CuPa short, forking into CuPaα and CuPaβ close to the wing base; CuPaα fused with M+CuA immediately and running for a long distance; CuPaβ and CuPb simple; AA1 strong, reaching posterior wing margin distal of the end of ScA; without distinct coloration spots on the wing. Abdomen: cerci short and conical, unsegmented, 2.3 mm long, with numerous hairs; ovipositor sickle like, 6.4 mm long (measured from the tip to the base), more than twice as long as the pronotum.
