Pygofer (Figs 2 C���E) with posterior margin slightly produced, disc with four or five macrosetae and some microsetae near basal ventral margin; dorsal process with bifurcated apex; ventral process curved ventromesad, not exceeding apical margin of pygofer. Subgenital plate (Fig. 2 F) with 4 or 5 macrosetae. Style (Fig. 2 G) short with rounded preapical lobe. Aedeagus (Figs. 2 H���I) atrium with paired dorsal processes with convergent apices, long unpaired ventral process with bifurcate apex and irregular denticulate lobe between ventral process and shaft; shaft short and straight, gonopore apical.

Paratypes: 2 males, same data as holotype except hand collected and Hg vapor lights [INHS]. Etymology.

This species closely resembles R. superba but has the aedeagus with ventral process longer than shaft and dorsal processes.
