The former five groups are here characterised by gonopodal and vulval structures which show no clear-cut differences, but rather gradual transitions between the groups.

Both gonopod pairs subequal in height. Promere with a well-developed distal groove. Opisthomere rather slender, with a well-pronounced mesomeroidal lobe, a basoposterior process with a moderately to strongly pronounced proximal part, ending with a variously shaped apical outgrowth, an anterior process in the shape of a small spine or rod of various length, a deep anteromesal sinus, a flagellum channel overgrown with short to moderately long spiniform filaments, and a more or less slender, apically often bipartite solenomere.
