in pharyngeal region. Lateral field with two incisures (one wing); extending to phasmid in both sexes; occupying about one-fifth of midbody diameter. Lip region slightly offset, carrying six labial and four cephalic papillae and two small, rounded amphid openings. Six triangular lips arranged in three pairs, one dorsal and two ventrolateral. Pairs of lips separated by primary axils with two triangular-elongate guarding processes originating from the incomplete first annulus. Secondary axils separating the lips of the pair also with two triangular-elongate guarding processes but separate from the first annulus. Each lip asym- metrically triangular, with about 13–15 tines along its margin: 6–7 short tines and one longer apical tine facing the primary axil, 6–7 short tines and one long tine in the middle facing the secondary axil.

Stoma length about one time lip region diameter. Stomatal parts less well discernible. Cheilorhabdia rounded in median section; metastegostom with a dorsal denticle. Pharyngeal corpus cylindrical-fusiform with wide lumen; isthmus narrow, demarcated from corpus by a break in muscular tissue; bulb oval with valves. Cardia enveloped by intestinal tissue. Nerve ring and excretory pore at level of metacorpus. Dei- rids at level of metacorpus-isthmus junction to isthmus.
