Valvae symmetrical, of moderate width, costal margin running almost straight, ventral margin roundly tapering from broad basal part to smoothly pointed apex; basal sector wide, 1/2 as broad as length of valva; valva with short thick setae from 1/2, more densely set at apex; each valva from 1/2 to apex with rounded, elongate, weakly sclerotized, half-moon shaped projection; projection as broad as half of valva at base, covered with abundant setae that become more dense, thicker, and shorter towards apex. Vinculum broad, U-shaped, thickly sclerotized, broadening caudally towards base of saccus; saccus very long and slender, twice as long as valva. Transtilla very strongly modified, broad, slender, covering base of valva. Aedoeagus very long, ca. 3× as long as valva and ca. 1.5× as long as saccus, slightly enlarged at coecum; vesica with four narrow needle-like cornuti parallel to one another along about 1/7 total length of aedoeagus; dorsal surface of distal 1/3 of aedoeagus covered with tiny scales (visible at 400×).

Posterior apophyses strongly sclerotized, ca. 230 and 250 µm (n = 2) long, with broad triangular bases, straight, broader at basal 1/2, gently tapering from 1/2 to apex, apically pointed. Segment VIII sclerotized, connected ventrally with weak dorsal connection, about 1.5 as long as papillae anales; anterior apophyses slightly longer than posterior ones, ca. 240 and 260 µm (n = 2) long, slender, gently tapering towards apices, almost parallel to each other, reaching middle of segment VII. Ostium bursae located in submedial sector of sternum VII, antrum short tube, well sclerotized; sterigma forming large sclerotized boomerang-like fold of cuticle. Ductus bursae about 0.60 mm long, 1/3 diameter of antrum, with initial section more sclerotized, as long as boomerang-like fold, followed by long unsclerotized section. Corpus bursae moderate, rounded, about half as long as ductus bursae, with large irregular membranous area set with fine short spines, also with small, stellate circular signum set with 21 and 23 (2 specimens) broad, marginal, dentate rays.
