Collared setae (cs), hairs (hrs), loculate pores (lp) and convex pores (cp) absent. Antennae short, apparently 7­ segmented but with middle 3 segments branched (possibly representing other 3 segments of normal 10­segmented antenna); long setae present only on basal 3 segments; more terminal segments with numerous short, parallel­sided, fleshy setae; satellite setae (sats) absent. Some sclerotised areas on body with nodulations. Legs well developed but all relatively short; anterior legs fossorial; procoxae, protrochanter and profemur with many bifurcating setae (bs); other legs not as setose; spur­like setae present on meso­ and metatibiae and tarsi; tarsi 1 segmented; claws without a denticle; claw digitules setose. Abdominal segment I not visible ventrally; abdomen with groups of tubular ducts on segments VI and VII; without lateral caudal extensions. Penial sheath strongly sclerotised and appearing quadrate but perhaps tubular, with a short aedeagus.

Ventral plate (vp) probably represented by a small inverted Y­shaped sclerotisation medially on posterior margin of head just anterior to mouth (m). Cranial apophysis (ca) not detected. No structures representing tentorial arms, tentorial bridge or tendon­like apodemes detected but mouth (m) clearly visible just posterior to ventral plate (vp). Ventral sclerites (vs) absent or fused to anterior end of cervical sclerites.

The spiracle on segment IV was very faint but, although a spiracular opening could not definitely be detected, it is considered that one was present as there was a distinct tracheal branch extending to the cuticle. The spiracles on segments V–VIII had moderate to strongly sclerotised openings, those on VIII the most sclerotised and distinct. It is therefore considered that spiracles are actually absent on the anterior three or four segments.</paragraph>
