♂ 8mm. The facies is as in microfulvia, perhaps more strongly shaded orange-red, but the species has distinct male genitalia. These have the tegumen distinctly broadened apically, nearing a bilobed structure ventrally, with the uncus reduced to asmall spur. The valves are simple, rather spatulate, with aslight ridge running into the distal expansion. The aedeagus is short, shallowly S-shaped.
