gen. n. species are identifiable by examination of the tip of the anterior gonopod, even with the gonopods lying in situ in ring 7: there is a terminal fringe of setae apparent behind a thin, translucent, anterior tab. The type species is likely to be a species complex (see Remarks on the type species) and the taxonomy of this genus would greatly benefit from genetic analysis.
