by the stouter and shorter penis, pala and parameroids are of similar length. The pala is wide at the base, much narrower caudally. The penis contour widens much where the parameroids originate whose sclerotized medial edges lie parallel to each other. Outer edges curved, first convex, then slightly concave, distal half convex, tips together forming an ovoid apex. In the widest area the outer edge is very delicate, with small irregular notches and lobes. Trigonium bifid, longer than wide and inserted well behind the transverse bridge. The median slit between the parameroids reaches to this point but seems to continue forward as a faint line. S8 Y-shaped, delicate.

). Resembles male in habitus. T8 and ovipositor unmodified. The front of S8 is slender, tongue-shaped, the lateral rods converge in front until they meet. However, a fine separation line is visible. Shortly before the front end the rods separate again, their slightly widened ends lie in close proximity. The prehensor consists of two longitudinal sclerites in a bell-shaped widening of the gonoduct. Caudally each sclerite is covered with sharp triangular spinules, tips directed backward. The narrow front end is close to the bursella which is covered with approximately circular depressions of variable size, each with minute peripheral plicae.
