Diagnosis

The single male is about the size of those of the previous two species and entirely uniform, a medium, dull brown.

Taxonomic note

The male genitalia of nivipetens, thecloides and unicolor show no obvious differences. It is possible, therefore, that the holotype of unicolor may merely be a somewhat bleached and discoloured male of thecloides.

Geographical range

Borneo.

Habitat preference

The species is only known from the holotype from Kuching in the lowlands of Sarawak.
