[JF2015] is most easily distinguished from other congenerics by the unique shape of the head, which is very wide and only somewhat swollen between the eyes. The rostrum is also much wider than long, and the nasal plate is weakly impressed. Additionally, the anterior margin of the prothorax is larger than the posterior margin and bears a well-developed tuft of post-ocular vibrissae. The spermatheca is unique in having the ramus stalked, with the apical bulb abruptly constricted, not tapering, at the point of connection with the stalk. The small, sub-recumbent setae and lack of separation of the procoxae help to distinguish this species from
