Remarks.
Based on the description and figures by
Anufriev (1987)
, this species can be distinguished from other species in this genus by following characters: Pygofer with subtriangular lateral margin; with a triangular medioventral process. Anal segment in lateral view slender, straight at basal part; in dorsal view, asymmetrical, about 3 times longer than broad, slightly widening at middle, rounded at apex. Anal style sits subapically (Figs 46, 47). Genital styles symmetrical, in lateral view with hook-shaped apex (Fig. 48). Aedeagus with 3 spinose processes, in dorsal view, periandrium narrow near middle, with 2 spinose processes, one comparatively short, arising near the base of flagellum, apex curved and directed cephalad. Another one comparatively long, implanted on the left side near the mid-length of periandrium, curved from left to right side, curving across the shaft subapically, apex curved 90 degrees and directed cephalad, not reaching the base of the periandrium. Flagellum with a stout and long spine extending from the middle, reaching the middle of the membranous portion of flagellum, directed cephalad. Flagellum reaching the base of the periandrium (Fig. 45). Periandrium symmetrically widened at base, caudal margin of the basal segment of the periandrium convex and serrated, lateral apical angle with two teeth near the distal portion (Figs 49, 50).
