Aedeagal shaft robust with distinct hump bearing pair of short horn-like processes. Width of shaft in lateral view at point of origin of process 0.8 mm, processes appear submarginal and finger-like in dorsal view, apically pointed in lateral view; arms of dorsal apodeme wider than in S. linnavuoirii .
