Abdomen (c?) long, slender; anal tuft bifid; antennae jilumose, the extreme 

 apex simple ; palpi short and broad, the terminal segment minute ; tongue and 

 frenulum present; hindlegs broken off; forewing with fovea at base. 



Neuration : forewing, cell half as long as wing ; discocellnlar vertical, curved ;
