Externally this species resembles lawaii but differs in characters of the male genitalia: the saccular portion of the valve is shorter and its
lobe more equilateral, the central portion is produced into a slender finger,
and the costal portion is straight, somewhat rhomboidal and over half the length
of the costa; the ventral process of the aedeagus terminates well short of the
aedeagus apex.
