Female genitalia (fig. 49). Segment VIII with crescent­shaped lamella postvaginalis and microtrichia. Distal end of the ventral groove marked by a small sclerotized extension. Ventral side of segment VIII weakly invaginated, dorsal side without a median tongue. Signum complex, consisting of an elongate to oval weakly sclerotized middle part, set with microtrichia at proximal and distal ends. Laterally the middle part is flanked by a broad, heavily sclerotized and finely grooved, serrate rim. Two semicircular membranes, set with short blunt spikes, connect the signum to the corpus bursae.
