Phallus broad, slightly flared at apex with large opening, with sclerotized articulation near 2/3, near where phallus emerges from hypandrium. Hypandrium sclerotized dark brown, asymmetrical, with broad ventral hood bearing hairs at pointed apex and left lateral lobe arising near base that crosses dorsally to right side of phallus, this lobe has minute scale-like setae on apical half. Subepandrial sclerite with sharply pointed, slightly hooked process emerging just ventral to base of cercus.
