Anepisternum with enlarged setae posteriorly. Katepisternum with strong dorsal setae comparable in length to standard single seta. Mid tibia with two lateromedial setae.

Surstylus fused to epandrium, small, triangular, with several rows of tubercle-like setae along inner-distal and posterior margins, with apical tubercles long, narrow, posteriorly directed. Hypandrium stout, subtriangular, with long terminal apodeme. Phallophorus broad, short. Basiphallus U-shaped, short, base and irregular apex of approximately equal distance from phallophorus and distiphallus (respectively). Mesophallus tubular, lightly pigmented, inserted ventromedially into distiphallus. Distiphallus stout, well-developed, sides (seen ventrally) subparallel with midpoint slightly bulging; in lateral view, basal section large, nearly as high as long and as long as dark, flattened distal section; with spinulose inner process; with one pair of stout ventrolateral tubules flanking mesophallus. Ejaculatory apodeme welldeveloped with blade weakly sclerotized excluding medial rib, laterobasal process strong; sperm pump with strong transverse sclerite ventrally that partially extends along duct base.

Furthermore, similar to some species in the group, the surstylus also has longer apical tubercle-like setae. To differentiate this new species from others in the species group, examination of the male genitalia is required for diagnosis: the surstylus is small and triangular with several dense rows of tubercle-like setae along the inner-distal margin with the apical setae slightly longer and posteriorly-directed (
