This is a smaller species than alhocalcarafun, Rad., and has 

 the third cubital cell longer than the second, not shorter as

A single male in the British Museum from Karachi 

 (Comber) corresponds fairly well with the description, but 

 the wings are. hyaline, not infuscate, an<l the clyjicus is 

 broadly rounded at the apex, not sul)emnrginafe ; but 1 am 

 inclined to look on the latter as a sexual dilierence.
