Male (
Fig. 20

Ectoproct small, with a pointed posteromedial lobe in lateral view; in dorsal view with that lobe broad, spatulated; ninth tergite rhomboidal in lateral view; medial lobe of ninth gonocoxites (tenth sternite of
Kimmins 1940
) is a short quadrate plate with some setae; complex of tenth gonocoxites (paramere of
Kimmins 1940
) has on its upper region a downwardly directed branch; basal branches are posteriorly directed and lying near each other, the basal branch is broad and the medial one is thin (
