For the characters of the genus see the diagnosis in

. Some characters mentioned there and augmented by own observations are: Dp and coxal plates with reticulation, CXI separate, CXIII bearing one pair of setae, C4 anteriorly, Expp broadly obcordate and occupying nearly the entire region posterior to CXIII or strip-like and lying in a posterior bay formed by both CXII+III, Expp bearing setae E1 and E2 (or, rarely additionally setae
V2
).
