Generic Description 
^Edeagus very long in relation to the other parts of the arma- 
ture, with a neck-like suprazonal portion (as if the correspond- 
ing part in Cyclargus had been telescoped out). Suprazonal 
sheath in ventral (1), dorsal (2) and lateral (3) view: (1) 
slightly expanding at its termination where it is slightly notched, 
each of the resulting portions being armed with five or six 
ventro-laterally placed spinules; (2) revealing at more than 
half-way from the zone a narrow vesical fissure, the rather 
rough margins of which, just before expanding slightly to form 
the vesical opening proper (which is as long as the fissure), are 
somewhat drawn together and produce at this point two surculi, 
one on each side; (3) rather strongly incurved, with the vesical 
opening facing more or less distad and appearing still shorter 
than it is owing to the vesical slit not being seen from this angle, 
so that the eye mistakes the projection in profile of the paired 
surculi (directed dorsad and proximad) for the protruding 
nether “lip” of the opening. 1 Vesica, as seen laterally, pulvi- 
nate as in Cyclargus , but with smaller cornuti. Alulae hardly, if 
at all, differentiated from the sagum, which is rudimentary, with 
no trace of teeth. Furca small, well adjusted to the aedeagus 
subzonally as in Cyclargus. Falx resembling Cyclargus but 
somewhat stronger and thicker. Uncus lobe evenly tapering to 
a blunt point. Valve small, shorter than the aedeagus, approach- 
ing the Plebejince shape-norm somewhat better than Cyclargus 
which it resembles only in the shoe-shaped mentum with no 
trace of a bullula and in the freedom of the rostellum; the 
latter, however, lacking any serration, with a bluntly tapering 
1 Moreover, from a certain angle, and especially in hanno , these surculi are 
easily mistaken by the eye for modified alulae that would have been carried away 
from the zone by the generic distal extension of the aedeagus.
