A). The dorsal face of the head and body exhibits a longitudinal medial groove where left and right muscle blocks meet. The anterior tip of the head and the snout profile are rounded. The subterminal oral disc protrudes antero-ventrally and is only visible in lateral or ventral view. The nares are round and open anterolaterally. The rim of the nares bears a distinct middorsal projection. The spiracle is sinistral. The cylindrical spiracular tube protrudes from the abdominal wall in its distal part only. The orifice of the spiracle opens posterolaterally and is positioned at 4647% of the headtrunk length. The tail makes up 73% of the total body length. The eyes are sunken and do not project beyond the body wall, the iris is uniformly black. They are positioned dorsolaterally (
