. Segment numbers 118–169. Color of live specimens unknown. Male pores paired in XVIII, sitting near the lower edge on a pre-setal genital marking. Post-clitellar genital markings 3– 6 papillae or tubercles on each side on XVIII; typically three, arranged in a triangle (one lateral, one pre-setal, and one post-setal), often the anterior-most marking extends posteriorly to contain the primary male pore. All markings surrounded by deep, concentric furrows. Spermathecal pores two pairs in 5/6/7. Pre-clitellar genital markings present, one in front of and one behind each spermathecal pore, the latter more median to the pore. Female pore single in XIV. First dorsal pore 10/11 or 11/12. Spermathecae two pairs in VI–VII, variable in size, duct slender, as long as ampulla; diverticulum small or degenerated, usually shorter than the respective spermatheca, with a slender stalk and an ellipsoidal to pear-shaped seminal chamber. Prostate glands absent or well developed; when present, large, extending from XVI, XVII to XXIII, XXIV. Intestinal caeca paired in XXVII, simple, variable in size, extending anteriorly as far as XXIII.
