This combination is purely utilitarian and highly dubitative, since these specimens possess the state 15 aa and cc, but show only partial furrow dividing upper petiolar surface from the tergum, normal epipygium with horizontal very distinct by a keel from lateral areas and round headed aedeagus. On the other hand it has flagellar tyloids like the other members of the genus and basal hind tarsomerus without short approached hair on its upper surface. Because of the flagellomeri this combination is felt better than its transferring to Meria .
