Basal spine long, about half-length of postabdominal claw, with a forked tip, ventral margin armed with spinules (Figure 31). Limb I with copulatory hook curved, U-shaped, projection at the tip present, copulatory brush seta shorter than male seta on IDL (en4), the latter armed with three setae; male setae thick with tip slightly curved; setae 2-3 armed with proximal denticles (as observed in female); ODL seta longer than IDL setae (Figures 32-33).
