From the other congeners known from Taiwan, this new species differs also in the absence of sphaerotrichomes on ♂ legs.

All poreless segments with three, all pore-bearing ones with four, small but evident incisions, each usually bearing a small seta on top at lateral margin. Metatergal sculpture typical, moderately developed, with three indistinct transverse rows of setiferous, polygonal bosses (Figs 62, 63). Tergal setae very short, mostly retained, a little longer only on collum and in rear row on metatergum 19. Stricture between pro- and metazona wide and smooth. Limbus very thin, microdenticulate. Epiproct rather short, conical (Fig. 65), only slightly bent ventrad, preapical papillae evident.
