. Femoral apophysis protruding slightly, with several setae. Prolateral tibial apophysis distinct, arch-shaped. Retrolateral tibial apophysis base wide, narrowing abruptly at middle and tip digitiform; retroventral tibial apophysis nearly trapeziform. Tegulum narrower than cymbium, oval; tegular apophysis short rod-like. Sperm duct distinct, stomach-shaped, tapering from retrolateral side of tegulum to embolus. Embolus short, transverse. Conductor absent.
