2.4. Diagnostic Notes **Adult**

Shaft of male antenna simple to slightly serrate, with sensilla trichodea (cilia) moderately abundant and at base of shaft about 1/2 as long, or as long as, basal diameter of shaft. Frons convex, with anteriorly projecting scales. Labial palpus of both sexes upturned or porrect, third segment shorter than second. Maxillary palpus simple. Haustellum well developed. Ocellus present. Basal 1/2 of costa of forewing of male very slightly convex at base; under surface without costal fold or streaks or patches of contrastingly colored scales. Forewing smooth scaled; with 11 veins; R2 from cell, closely approximate to stalk of R3+4 and R5 for about 1/3 distance from cell; R3+4 and R5 stalked for over 2/3 their lengths; M1 from below upper angle of cell; M2 and M3 stalked for 1/2 or less the length of the veins; CuA1 from lower angle of cell; CuA2 from before lower angle of cell. Hindwing with 8 veins; Sc+R1 and Rs strongly fused for most of theft lengths beyond cell; M2 and M3 stalked for about 1/2 their lengths, the stalk connate or very closely approximate to CuA1 at base; CuA1 from lower angle of cell; CuA2 from well before lower angle; cell 1/2 length of wing. Transverse, sclerotized bar associated with scale tufts. Male genitalia apical process of transtilla more shallowly bifid or entire; costa of valva not produced apically. Female genitalia with ductus bursae and corpus bursae membranous except for weakly sclerotized area near genital opening; signum usually present and consisting of an elongate patch of scobinations or microspines; ductus seminalis arising from lobe of corpus bursae near junction of ductus bursae and corpus bursae.
