MATERIAL

No material was examined for this species.

DIAGNOSIS

This species can be separated from other Chilo species by examination of the male genitalia ( Fig. 98 View Figs 94-99 ): juxta symmetrical, with lateral arms arms not extending beyond basal-costal angle of valva; phallus with short ventral arm, subapical long patch of thorns and elongate patch of small cornuti. In female genitalia ( Fig. 156 View Figs 156-159 ), the two lamellate signa of the corpus bursae separate this species from other congeneric species of the Philippines ( Anon, 2019; Bleszynski, 1970c).
