C–E): Sclerites 7–8 and intersegmental membrane very long (sternite 7 about 3× as long as wide, sternite 8 about 4× as long as wide). Tergite 8 divided into two long and narrow hemitergites (almost stick-like, but with an enlarged anterior end). Sternite 8 elongate with entire apex. Sensilla trichodea (alpha setae) present on sternites. Epiproct lobe-shaped, without microtrichosity, with several sensilla trichodea apically, with seven setae apically. Hypoproct with well-developed ligulae. Cerci moderately elongated, i.e. slightly longer than epiproct, with several sensilla trichodea on apical third, with short setae apically and without microtrichosity.
