Ventral part with fine, inconspicuous punctation, slightly visible on metaventrite and metacoxae and stronger on abdominal ventrites; prosternum smooth medially; metaventrite and metacoxae with distinct microreticulation medially; on abdominal ventrites microreticulation almost invisible; metacoxal plates with short, numerous, strongly impressed longitudinal strioles, abdominal ventrites 1 and 2 with numerous, long, longitudinal strioles from margin to margin, on abdominal ventrites 3 and 4 strioles situated laterally and turn to middle, almost horizontal, abdominal ventrites 5 and 6 without strioles but with rather distinct punctation that sparser medially and forms a dense lateral area at each side.

: Protibia straight, not modified. Proclaws simple, relatively long, equal. Median lobe of aedeagus with two lobes of dorsal sclerite rather narrow; left lobe distinctly shorter than right one; left dorsal lobe almost straight to apex, with weak, longitudinal crest, its dorsal surface with distinct denticulation visible in left lateral view; right dorsal lobe with weakly developed, inconspicuous median impression in right lateral view, with broad, rounded apex. Lobes of ventral sclerite weakly sclerotised laterally, visible in left and right lateral views, mostly membranous, subequal, straight apically; sclerotised part of left ventral lobe long, thin, and straight apically, 2/3 of length of left dorsal lobe. Paramere with setae not divided into distal and proximal; more distally situated setae denser than more proximal ones (Fig.
