shares many of these character states except the 6th abdominal tergite is separated from the syntergosternite 7+8, surstylus is well developed and separated from the epandrium and ejaculatory apodeme is rather well sclerotized. These states are in contrast to Tschorsnig’s characterization of the tribe in which the 6th tergite is continuous with syntergosternite 7+8, surstylus is short and fused with the epandrium, and ejaculatory apodeme is indistinct.
