Plesiomorphies of Proboscidoplocia. In imago and subimago: in cubital field of fore wing several (3–6) simple or branched sigmoid veins arise directly from CuA [see Plesiomorphies of Euthyplocia/fg1] (unlike Campylocia and Polyplocia) (Demoulin 1966e: Fig.1; Elouard & Sartori 1997: Fig.1–11); claws [except for blunt claws on fore legs of male imago – see Euthyplocia/fg1 (10)] are ephemeropteroid (unlike Euthyplocia/fg2, Campylocia and Polyplocia); gonostylus with distal segment [single – see Euthyplocia/fg1 (5)]; paracercus is well-developed in both sexes (unlike Exeuthyplocia/fg1 and some Euthyplocia/fg2). Larval fore tarsus without projection (unlike Euthyplocia/fg2 and Polyplocia).

Size. Fore wing length 12–36 mm. 

Distribution. Madagascar.
