Pygofer side longer than wide in lateral view (
Fig. 3A
), paired processes of internal pygofer membrane relatively slender and evenly curved ventromesad (

). Anal tube with appendages fused for short distance, with distal branches longer than fused section, apex of each branch cheliform with five smaller teeth evenly spaced between large lateral and mesal tooth (
Fig. 3B–C
). Subgenital plate with lateral margin moderately convex basally, moderately concave distally, with 6 macrosetae laterally at proximal half (
Fig. 3E
). Style with crow head-like apophysis, surface of apophysis rugose with scattered small setae (
Fig. 3E–F
). Aedeagal shaft relatively slender approximately five times longer than maximum width in posterior view, with 3 pairs of lateral teeth arranged asymmetrically. Dorsal connective approximately 1.8 times wider than maximum height (
