( Plate 6 View PLATE 6 , Fig. 8).
The egg is 1210.7 µm long and 459.5 µm wide; 2.64 times longer than wide, the width/length ratio is 3/8; the maximum diameter is in the third-fifth of its length, it thins at the first basal seventh forming a short and wide neck that is equivalent to 1/7 of its length (Nh= 21). The egg is obpyriform, elongated; the base is convex, reticulated and 2.5 times wider than the cusp. The apex is obtuse, rounded, and acuter than the base. It has 35 to 41 ribs (modes = 37, 38). These are straight with an alternate arrangement between axes, but toward the apex, they are curved and sinuous, while in the neck often they are diagonal; at the proximal end, the first two rows are disorganized in a grid with tiny irregular polygons of more than four sides. The intercostal spaces are of constant amplitude, except toward the basal zone where they are reduced by half. The axes are straight and laminar, usually twice as thick as the ribs; there are 11 to 14 axes (LoA= 6 to 8 and ShA= 4 to 7), in some cases between 2 LoA there are 2 ShA. The ShA are separated from the micropylar area by 1 to 6 ribs, often 4. The grid is made up of rectangles, a little less than three times wider than they are long, which reduce their amplitude toward the base. The chorion is asymmetrical or shows radial or bilateral symmetries.
