A cylindrically swollen, everted ventro-apically. AL and VB slightly bulging at base of A, vested with fine spines, which are forming oblong spots. DA well swollen basally. DLL oval everted right laterally, numerously with well sclerotized spines, which are forming a wide band. VA short and triangular swollen at base of DA, everted dorso-apically. VLR swollen left laterally at base of VA. VLL oval and widely swollen right laterally, with well sclerotized spines, which are forming a narrow band.
