13mm. The facies is similar
to that of the previous species in the basal part of the forewing, but the
postmedial is more regular, angled, with a bidentate projection distad in the
discal area; distal to it the longitudinal streaks are relatively long. The
hindwing has a faintly darker diffuse band at two-thirds. The genitalia resemble
those of mesilaulinea.
