GonoStyluS rounded and wIth rather Short haIrS on the outer SIde. The Inner SIde of gonoStyluS concaved along the entIre length. At the apeX of gonoStyluS are two Strong SpIneS wIthIn Shorter brIStleS and a long whIplaSh haIr. The 9th SternIte IS bIlobated. The tegmen IS apIcally rounded wIth a dIStInct area of fIne teeth.
