. Anal tube short, shallowly incised into pygofer (tergite IX &amp; X, length 0.20.4 times length of pygofer in dorsal view). Tergite X well sclerotized, produced internally into frame, articulating with dorsal apodeme of aedeagus. Pygofer lobe without processes, apex rounded, ventrally with distal twothirds opposable, in repose aperture between them sealed, with closure affected by plates; lobe laterally setose. Plates large, elongate; macrosetae lateral, left and right side often with different numbers, usually uniseriate; rarely with base fused; apex variable, truncate (right angled or acute, sometimes concave), pointed or rounded (with or without dorsal tooth). Valve obtusely triangular, apices rounded; rarely fused with plates. Aedeagus characterized by degrees of asymmetry in dorsal or ventral view: apex of shaft deflected laterally; or with asymmetric process or processes; or rarely with entire aedeagus asymmetric; or rarely with gonopore positioned asymmetrically or rarely entire aedeagus symmetrical. Aedeagal shaft smooth, length variable: vector length of shaft 1.14.8 times as long as vector length of dorsal apodeme, measured from preatrium; arbitrary categories: 1.1 (very short); 1.31.9 (short); 2.12.5 (long); 3.04.8 (very long), commonly tubular, rarely with long basal, apical or medial spines; gonopore subapical, usually lateral; preatrium articulating with connective; dorsal apodeme articulating with sclerotized, H-shaped process of tergite X. Connective linear, arms fused; stem short, membranously attached to aedeagus; 1.94.0 times as long as greatest width. Style with preapical lobe usually present; apophysis tapering, usually serrate ventrally, length variable, vector length from apex of apophysis to preapical lobe 0.31.3 times vector length from preapical lobe to apex of anterior lateral lobe.

. Sternite VII with posterior margin variable, either rounded lobes with wide notch, or narrow lobes with deep cleft. Sternite VIII sometimes sclerotized, giving appearance that translucent sternite VII is sclerotized. Sternite VIII separated from sternite VII by 2 or 4 tubular or irregular processes, or when absent then sternite VIII flush with sternite VII. Third valvula with 03 macrosetae subapically (26.8±7.3 µm long, 5.1±1.1 µm basal width), more proximal setae are distinctly narrower (13.5±5.8 µm long, 1.4±0.8 µm basal width), sometimes individuals have only short setae. Second valvula variable, without serration, with rounded serration, or with fine, pointed teeth. First valvula lanceolate, sculpturing marginal, imbricate, scales roundish, sometimes more rectangular marginally.
