longer than wide, with short necks; circumfila appressed, consisting of a continuous sinuous band along length of flagellomere and a separate, apical transverse band. Claws on foreleg apparently simple, thin, curved near midlength, empodium shorter than claws. Last abdominal segments with scales, the sclerites obscured on mount. Terminalia: gonocoxite with acute apicoventral process; gonostylus wide and microtrichose on basal half, narrow and carinate on distal half, with comb-like tooth apically; aedeagus long, strongly recurved, tapering apically; cerci large, elliptical; hypoproct broad, slightly shorter than cerci, shallowly concave distally, with apical seta on each resulting lobe.

The terminalia are distorted on the slide mount but are nevertheless tantalizingly odd. The curved, acute apex of the gonocoxite is reminiscent of the shape of the ventrodistal lobe in

. The bizarre shape of the terminalia in this species insures a species identification should another specimen become available. The tarsal claws appear to lack the basal tooth, but the acromere of the only available leg is not well displayed and partially obscured on the mount. If the claws are truly simple, this species will be the first to lack toothed claws in the genus.
