Male eighth sternite broader than long, its caudal margin slightly concave in middle, setae confined to median area in distal 0.6. Male genitalia : Ventral process of pygophore gradually narrowed to acute apex, distal half with longitudinal rugae. Subgenital plate with very shallow concavity proximally on mesal margin. Style apophysis of type 1. Aedeagus stout, short, distal half of shaft stout, rounded, in caudal view slightly narrowed distally with bilobed apex.
