Very faintly constricted between prozonite and metazonite; prozonites smooth; metazonites laterally with transverse striae slightly above ozopore in anterior body rings. Anterior sterna in midbody rings subrectangular, with shallow transverse striae ( Fig. 167E).  FIRST LEG-PAIR OF MALES. Coxae ( cx) short (less than half of remaining podomere lengths), subtriangular, with the base arched, densely setose ( Fig. 57A); prefemoral process ( prf) as wide as half of prefemur, subcylindrical, densely setose up to its median region ( Fig. 57B); remaining podomeres with setae along the mesal region.  SECOND LEG-PAIR OF MALES.

Gonocoxa ( gcx) elongated, almost twice as long as telopodite, with the base arched; flattened antero-posteriorly ( Fig. 57D–F);with rows of papillae mesally.Seminal groove ( sg) curved; arising medially on mesal cavity and terminating apically on the seminal apophysis ( sa). Shoulder ( sh) rounded. Telopodite ( tp) almost as wide as gcx( Fig. 57D); solenomere ( sl) with apicomesal process ( amp) subtriangular; ectal process ( ep) subtriangular, separated from ampby deep notch; salocated at mesal portion, slightly visible apically. Internal branch ( ib) subtriangular, narrow, curved ectad at midlength, surrounding the base of tpas a shield; with torsion of 180° in the distal portion and a rounded projection, directed ectad; ibwith setae along its entire margin slightly exceeding apically seminal region of sl( Fig. 57D–F).  VULVAE. As typical for the genus. Bursa subtriangular, glabrous ( Fig. 177F); internal valve subtriangular, with mesal region rounded; operculum narrow; external valve wide, subtriangular.    Distribution The species is widely distributed in the Cerrado (tropical savanna ecoregion) of Goiásup to the southern Bahia State, in the semi-arid region of the Caatinga biome and partially some patches of Atlantic Forest in northeastern Brazil( Fig. 181). 4101309649 2012-06-10 R R.
