Metaterga of succeeding segments (fig. 3) smooth, virtually without paranota, with 3 acuminate lateral setae anterior to ozopores subtending small marginal teeth, about 15 setae on caudal margins posterior to ozopores, 10–13 setae in anterior rows, and ca. 15–22 scattered dorsal setae. Caudal segments with dorsal setae arranged in 3 transverse rows. Limbi smooth. Ozopores (fig. 3) with slightly raised rims. Epiproct setose and subtriangular, sides tapering evenly to tip; spinnerets not set in depression.

Is it a troglobite, a troglophile, or an edaphobite to be found only occasionally in caves? Both troglobitic and edaphobitic minute polydesmidans tend to be depigmented, and of course, all polydesmidans are eyeless. Figs. 1–3 show that the legs and antennae of the species are not elongated nor attenuate, and the cuticle is well-calcified. Since very little collecting has been done outside caves in the region, we are not at all confident that
