Amended Diagnosis. Robust, medium sized ( 4 – 5 mm) planthoppers. Head barely projected in front of eyes. Vertex trapezoidal, anterior margin nearly truncate (apical transverse carinae indistinct or absent), lateral margin bearing one or more rows of pits, extending to frontoclypeal margin of frons. Frons narrowed, concave, lateral margins foliate, median carina absent. Paradiscal region of pronotum strongly foliate (apices exceeding antennae), forming conspicuous C-shaped postantennal crest behind antennae. Forewing with RA 2-branched, both branches terminating along costal margin, creating sub-rectangular cell. Terminalia bilaterally symmetrical except aedeagus. Medioventral process of pygofer well developed; inner processes of gonostyli quadrate to subquadrate; aedeagus asymmetrical with pair of basal processes, one process (usually) bifid.
