Mandibles robust, asymmetrically toothed with 3 large apical teeth on right mandible; smaller close-set teeth over inner surface grading down to a dense hairmass at proximal inner angle. Labial palps 3-segmented. Maxillary palps 5-segmented; 1.1–1.7x head width; ratio about 1:0.9:1.5:2.2.3:0.7; palp segment 4 almost straight, with fine transverse striations. Head vestiture comprising dense tufts of moderately long piliform scales.

Tergum 10 extremely variable, ranging from a simple median lobe, to a broad, hood-like structure with a slightly emarginate posterior edge, to two separate lobes; upper surface densely scaled and setose, lower surface lacking setae or with a mound of specialised setae on its lateral margins.

In many preparations a small eversible bladder was noted projecting from the gonopore; a tapering, conical sac, no longer than the diameter of phallus. It possibly represents an eversible distal portion of the ejaculatory duct. Phallocrypt densely clothed with large, acutely pointed micro-scales.

Virtually all the remaining morphological characters of this new genus are shared, in different combinations, across members of the entire family in both hemispheres. Notable among these is the uniquely sexually dimorphic form of the S5 gland protuberances and the variable retention of discrete S8 sclerites.

Many of the distinguishing features of this morphotype, viz the rounded, non-hexagonal body-form, the longer thoracic legs, well-developed abdominal prolegs, the reduction of stemmata and the lack of integumental pigment could be interpreted as common adaptations for a subterranean habitat. But other characters, such as the loss of the functional spiracle on A8, which is shared between these two genera, might suggest a more fundamental association. Ultimately, there will hopefully be a molecular resolution for this issue of the deeper lineage divergence within
