). Its shape is conical, unilobed, with proximal region distinctly thinner than the distal region. The hemipenial body does not possess filiform appendages. A total of sixteen, mostly continuous flounces extend across the entire asulcate face. The three most proximal flounces are transversally oriented, the other thirteen are laterally oriented, with a central vertex directed distally. The asulcate central nude is narrow. Lateral body flounces ornamentation consists in a series of comb-like spicules over the distal part of the hemipenial body. Sulcus spermaticus begins at the hemipenial base and extends in a straight broad line until it divides into two branches at the distal third of the organ. The sulcus spermaticus is bordered laterally by fleshy nude areas which expand in two branches, which are divided by a central fleshy fold.
