Derm rather uniformly sclerotised, with a fairly broad band of elongate areolations close to margin, long axis of each areolation running parallel with margin; inner submargin with small oval areolations, these becoming more distinct submarginally and submedially; rest of derm with abundant minute pale spots, and specimens from Nellikuppam with dorsal pores forming 4 longitudinal rows of polygons on each side. Stigmatic rays present; marginal radial lines obscure, indicated by distribution of pores and setae, with 13 on head between anterior stigmatic clefts, each side with 5 between stigmatic clefts and 11–13 on abdomen. With 5 [4] pairs of abdominal clear areas plus another at apices of anterior stigmatic rays. Dorsal setae each spinose, with parallel sides and often a slightly capitate apex, each 11–13 [10–12] µm long, longest medially, each with a broad basal socket about 5 µm wide, frequent in a sparse polygonal pattern; frequency rather variable but setae absent or sparser medially; many dorsal setae each closely associated with a broad membranous area about 8 µm wide (some of these areas lack a seta but it is considered that the setae have been lost). Preopercular pores each convex, 3–4 µm wide, with 1–56 [0] pores associated with CA1, CA2 with 36–82 [0 or 1], CA3 with 47–84 [17–19] and CA4 with 41–95 [50] pores. Other dorsal pores of perhaps

Anal plates elongate, together narrowly quadrate, with anterior margin generally shorter than posterior margin; each plate with 3 minute setae near posterior apex plus 1 longer apical seta, and with 1–3 small pores medially; posterior third often with corrugations; length of plates 281–294 [306] µm, combined width 195–207 [220] µm. Anogenital fold with 3 minute setae at each corner of anterior margin; each lateral margin with 1 seta anteriorly and another posteriorly.

Marginal setae broadly fan-shaped, almost round to wider than long; width of each fan about 33–50 [30–50] µm, length 28–33 [33–38] µm; with about 140–166 [146] setae anteriorly on head between anterior stigmatic clefts, each side with 61–79 [63–72] between stigmatic clefts and 136–115 [116–144] on abdomen. Stigmatic clefts quite deep, each with a narrow entrance, a sclerotised inner margin and 3 (rarely 4) [3] elongate, blunt stigmatic spines, often subequal in length; length of median stigmatic spines 45–60 [50–60] µm, laterals each 33–40 [45–53] µm long. Eyespots each in a socket 100–125 µm wide, diameter of lens about 25 µm.

Derm membranous, without a submarginal band. Multilocular disc-pores frequent on either side of genital opening and on preceding two segments only, each side with 27–38 [26–38] on abdominal segment VII, 37–43 [51–61] on segment VI and 32–47 [40–45] on segment V. Spiracular disc-pores present in a narrow band, mostly 1 pore wide, between margin and each spiracle, with 45-50 [51–53] pores in each anterior band and 22–25 [27] in each posterior band, but the latter without pores in middle part of band. Ventral microducts minute, present in a group just posterior to and on either side of labium; probably present elsewhere but very sparse. Ventral setae: with 2 pairs of setae between antennae; pairs of long pregenital setae on segments VII–V (that on VII 105–135 µm long); small setae absent medially from just anterior to vulva in abdominal segment VII and very sparse elsewhere; and with a group of 4–8 slightly longer setae, each about 15–25 µm long, on either side of anal cleft near anal plates. Antennae reduced, each with 3 or 4 segments, segmental divisions between segments IV–VI indistinct or absent but usually with a pseudo-articulation in segment III; total length 195–230 [220] µm; hair-like setae present or absent associated with fleshy setae in “segments IV and V”. Clypeolabral shield 120–128 µm long. Spiracles: width of each peritreme 60–66 [61–64] µm. Legs present but very small and reduced, with a coxa, short trochanter and remaining segments fused [slightly less reduced, many 4 or 5 segmented]; without claws and digitules [some with claws and claw digitules, each digitule rather parallel-sided]; total length of prothoracic legs 6 0–83 [90–100] µm, meso- and metathoracic legs shorter, each perhaps 58–75 [90] µm;
