Prepharyngeal band runs close to the velum and draws a circular line with shallow dorsal V around large oval dorsal tubercle which has C-shaped opening. Dorsal lamina is a high plain-edged membrane. The branchial sac has one shallow but distinct fold on each side running on some distance from the dorsal lamina, otherwise its wall is quite smooth. Internal longitudinal vessels are very numerous and closely set, with no more than one stigmata between two adjacent vessels.</paragraph>
