genera, the valve with well developed thorn-like harpe medio-subbasally; the costa is weakly sclerotized, without medial and distal processes; the sacculus with a well developed distal process; the vesica consists of one dorsal subbasal membranous diverticulum and large sack-like distal section with fields of spine- or tooth-like scobination and/or clusters of numerous small but robust cornuti. The female genitalia (
Figs. 14–15
) are characterized by the very long, well sclerotized and dorso-ventrally flattened ductus bursae, the small, elliptical corpus bursae with a strong spine-like scobination, and the very long and narrow appendix bursae directed posteriorly. Genital differences from
Pseudomiltochrista
are described in the diagnosis of the latter.
