Holotype male: body approximately 10 mm long; mid-body ring approximately 1.2 mm wide dorsally with distinct waist between prozonite and metazonite; legs of moderate length, approximately equal to the length of 1 to 2 mid-body rings. Colour dark brown overall and legs with coloration similar to that of body. Paranota on all but first few body rings small. Sternites, other than those of the fifth body ring, with no noticeable features. Anterior spiracles at mid-body flat circular. Antennae less obviously clavate, fifth and sixth antennomeres only slightly wider than proximal ones, long, extending beyond body segment 2, antennomeres relatively slender (Figs 5, 6A, B). Gonopod long, extending at least to fifth body ring; coxa (C) much broader than acropodite and approximately 2x as long as broad; prefemur(PF) short, sub-globose; femorite (F) short, one-quarter to one-third length of acropodite, slightly narrower at base, then broadening; non-seminiferous branch(NSB) broadest at solenomere base then narrowing to form pointed finger-like shape; process on medial surface of NSB (nsbp) pointed, arising closer to NSB tip than to solenomere base (bs), and much shorter than NSB; solenomere (S) relatively long and slender, arising midway between NSB tip and prefemur, basal third curving away from NSB and tip curving back towards gonopod midline to form loose arc; solenomere tip divided into two, main pointed ribbon like forks; solenomere process (sp) present, long, finger-like and extending almost to solenomere tip; separate posterior process (pp) arising near solenomere base, long, slender, pointed and approximately half solenomere length (Figs 1D, 6
