Distiphallus broad and short, basal part ending in a simple phallic bulb with a broad posterior loop; distal part of distiphallus separated from phallic bulb by a dorsal notch, exceptionally short, barely longer than phallic bulb, ending in a weakly differentiated but apically cupped glans. Blade of ejaculatory apodeme smaller than epandrium but much larger than sperm pump, ejaculatory apodeme including sperm pump subequal in length to epandrium.
