sp. n., based both on several peripheral characters (shorter legs, mostly a smaller body size etc.) and gonopod conformation, it is distinguished by the gonopod lobe b being membranous and lobiform, the terminal branches of the solenophore differing in length and crossing each other, with branch x carrying an inconspicuous lobe (see also Key below).

<paragraph pageId="10" pageNumber="11">Postcollum constriction evident; in width, segment 2 = 3 <4 <collum <head = segments 5-15; thereafter body gradually and gently tapering towards telson both in width and height. Antennae (Fig. 25) medium-sized, slender, reaching behind stricture of tergite 3. Paraterga (Figs 26 & 27) very poorly developed, very evident and low only on segment 2, calluses (cal) (nearly) completely delimited by a sulcus dorsally, in caudal 1/3 also ventrally only on pore-bearing segments. Transverse sulcus (Figs 26, 27) developed on segments 5-17, traceable on segment 18, wanting on 19th, narrow, shallow, neither beaded at bottom nor reaching bases of paraterga. Surface smooth throughout, slightly granulated only below paraterga 2-4. Limbus thin, caudal margin entire. Stricture dividing pro- and metazona shallow, narrow, not beaded at bottom (Figs 26 & 27). Pleurosternal carinae present only on segments 2 and 3 (Fig. 25). Tergal setae almost fully abraded, 2+1 retained only at anterior edge of collum; pattern untraceable. Ozopores lateral, lying on calluses ca 1/2 metatergal length in front of caudal edge (Figs 26 & 27). Epiproct long (Figs 28 & 29), flattened dorsoventrally, straight, not curved caudoventrad in lateral view, ratio of epiproct length to pre-epiproct length of telson 1: 1.3, tip of epiproct slightly concave; pre-apical papillae (pap) evident, close to apex. Hypoproct (Fig. 30) rounded, subtrapeziform, 1+1 setae at caudal corners situated on well-separated knobs, sides slightly concave.</paragraph>

Legs (Fig. 27) moderately long and slender, legs 1 to anterior legs of segment 17 with tarsal brushes, thereafter legs broken off in both available ♂♂, each midbody leg ca 1.2 times as long as body height, coxa 2 with a small apical process supporting a gonopore.</paragraph>
