Ventral process of each paramere wide, distinctly narrowed apically, rounded at apex; conjoint dorsal plate of parameres developed, about two-thirds length of ventral process and as wide as half of the distance between outer margins of ventral processes, slightly widened apically, with straight apical margin. ABDOMINAL STERNITE VIII Oŀ ŀEMALE ( Fig. 5 B ). Distinctly protuberant in middle of posterior margin, the middle protuberance slightly and triangularly emarginate at apex, forming a pair of median lobe, which are slightly rounded at apices.

Vagina stout, abruptly thinned and extended into a slightly long duct at ventroapical portion; diverticulum and spermathecal duct arising from the end of the duct of vagina; diverticulum moderately long, spiral and slightly thinned apically; spermathecal duct distinctly shorter than and thicker than diverticulum; spermatheca composed of a spiral tube which is distinctly longer than diverticulum, provided with a thin accessory gland which is slightly shorter than the spiral tube of spermatheca; median oviduct situated in middle of vagina.
