( Figure 2 View FIGURE 2 )

Spermathecal bulb is like feeding bottle ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 .a,b). Apical region of spermathecal bulb has multiple pores and sperm tails, but there are no pores in the remainder ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 .c). Pumping region with distal and proximal flanges dilated medially ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 .d). Distal and proximal flanges are of equal lengths ( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 .d,e). Length of distal spermathecal duct one fifth of proximal one ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 .a) and median spermathecal duct dilation with sclerotized rod. Spermathecal dilation; wide at anterior portion but in posterior portion is narrowed ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 .a,f). Proximal spermathecal duct is a muscular structure ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 .g,h) and more than four times longer than the distal spermathecal duct ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 .a). V shaped sclerites near opening of spermathecal duct and two ring sclerites at both lateral sıde of genital chamber with opening of proximal duct ( Figs. 2 View FIGURE 2 .a, ı, i).
