: Broad oval shield extends to end of idiosoma, measurements 890 x 615. Unarmed cuticle protrudes laterally in this compressed specimen giving a subcircular outline. Shield covered in scale-like reticulations, with 12–13 setae on each side of podonotum and 11–12 setae on each side of opisthonotum, medial unpaired setae absent. Setae J2 laterad J1, J1 apparently shifted posteriorly. All setae smooth, including Z5. Representative setal lengths are j2 38, J2 49. Dorsal shield with smooth even edge, sharply demarcated from unarmed striate cuticle.

: Tritosternum with broad, squat base 23 long to suture. Broad strap-like, smooth-edged laciniae, 154 long, branching 17 above suture. Edges of sternal shield lightly sclerotised, anterior and posterior edges of sternal shield obscure. Shield bearing at least st1–2 and two pairs of lyrifissures. Setae st1 48, st2 51, st3 46. Setae st3 inserted in glabrous and essentially desclerotised cuticle; their placement on or off the sternal shield is not clear. Setae st4 and st5 absent. Oval-shaped crater-like recess off shield on one side may represent vestigial st5. Genito-ventral shield maximum width 154. Shield with two distinct zones: an anterolateral zone featuring extended longitudinal striae, which project laterally and impart a characteristic lobed outline to the genito-ventral shield; and a posterior zone featuring a few transverse striae. All ventral setae smooth, without barbs. Setae in R series absent. Area of opisthogaster anterior to anal shield with seven pairs of setae, four of which are spinose. Metapodal shields absent. Endopodal shield not fused to other shields, shape thin, following contours of coxa III and IV. Peritremes extending to mid coxae II. On one side the peritreme is interrupted leaving a circular islet of isolated peritreme at level of mid coxa II. Post-stigmatal plates absent. Pores associated with these plates not detectable. Anal shield with strong anterolateral humera, anterior edge somewhat irregular, 192 across. Shield 172 long, 185 wide at level of cribral pores. Anal opening situated close to posterior margin and completely posterior to the cribral pores. Para-anal setae 35, post-anal seta 59. Circum-anal setae smooth, 5–6 thick at base; thicker than adjacent opisthogastric setae. Posterior margin bears a narrow zone of cribral spicules which also extend along lateral shield margin to a level just anterior of paraanal setae.
