Curved or hook-like setae on the leading edge of the hind wing that are used to grasp the retinaculum of the forewing to couple the forewing and hind wing together during flight.

One of a series of small bristle-like hooks on the anterior margin of the hind wing; in some groups there may be a basal and an apical series of hamuli.
