- Only three zygopteran species were recognised in the fauna by Wise.
- A construction of the fertilisation and copulatory events is proposed based on descriptive and experimental evidence in other zygopterans as well as in this species.
- As the individual warmed, it moved to the sunlit side of the plant to take on the normal zygopteran posture, posture 2, where only the legs touched the substrate.
