5mm. This species has the forewing marked only by sparse flecks of black, mostly
in the sinuous postmedial and the submarginal. The male genitalia have valves
shaped much as in
chamberlaini
but are slightly narrower and less falcate apically. The harpe resembles that of
carrei,
but the aedeagus vesica is much more elongate than in any other species
discussed so far and has a distal cluster of about a dozen spines.
