Prostomium elongated, anterior conical with broadly rounded point, posteriorly extended into low caruncle attached to dorsum; caruncle extending to end of chaetiger 2 with slight elevation on posterior part. Palps long, thin, with smooth sheath at base, usually distinctly thickened at base part with globular expansions; palps with separated, single row of mucus-secreting cells and accompanying cilia; irregular longitudinal swellings present but not parallel. Chaetiger 1 well developed, with rounded lamellae in both rami; notochaetae absent. Branchiae from chaetiger 2 to chaetigers 1819. Notopodial postchaetal lamellae foliate with pointed tip, largest on chaetigers 512; almost entirely fused but distally free from branchiae; from chaetiger 15 to middle chaetigers notopodia becoming smaller. Neuropodial postchaetal lamellae broadly rounded, from chaetiger 16 slightly notched. Neuropodial hooded hooks from chaetigers 1819 with 2 pairs of teeth in parallel position surmounting well-developed main fang, apical pair smallest. Pygidium slightly broad, rounded, with anus opening dorsally.
