Male abdomen (Figs B. 9) with apodemes extended to sternum V. Pygofer side (Figs B. 10) triangular, with dorsal sclerotized ridge terminating in short apical process and row of thin marginal setae. Subgenital plate (Figs B. 10) without lateral lobe, broad at base, tapered distally with apex hooked in lateral view; several macrosetae along lateral margin. Sternite IX (Figs B. 11) with pair of acute posterolateral extensions.
Paramere (Figs B. 11) very long, nearly straight, surpassing subgenital plate. Aedeagus (Figs B. 13,14), preatrium large, with two pairs of ventral processes extended dorsolaterad but not surrounding shaft: basal pair relatively short and thin, hooked posterad; distal pair longer, extended posterodorsad, denticulate preapically. Aedeagus shaft inflate apical, with tuft of apical microtrichia. Gonopore apical.

Etymology:
The specific epithet is derived from the Latin word “
inclusus
” meaning “surround” referring to the partly surrounded aedeagal shaft.
Remarks.
This species is similar to
Uniformus rostellatus
sp. nov.
but differs in having the pygofer dorsal margin heavily sclerotized and terminating in a process, sternite IX with acute lateral extensions, the paramere surpassing the subgenital plate, and the aedeagus shaft only partly surrounded by the ventral processes.
