Median apophyses shallow, asymmetrical and interlocking. The inner margins of the distal rami sections bear ~13–14/11–12 (left/right) strongly webbed arched rami scleropili. The basal apophyses are moderately developed ridges, composed of a series of fused scleropili. The fulcrum is short, plank-shaped, and more or less trapezoid in lateral view. It is composed of a double layer of long and appressed sclerite bodies, the caudal series of which is involved in the formation of the junction with the rami, and an anterior series which proximally border a distinct opening (

There are three straight major teeth with distinctly offset head in each uncus; the head of the midst teeth is only slightly smaller than the others. The minor teeth are weakly curved and lie close to each other; their head is elongate-lanceolate. The crescent shaped manubria are weakly sclerotized and composed of the superimposed dorsal, median, ventral and well developed sub-ventral chamber (indistinct in the SEM photographs due to crumpling up of weak manubria).
