. Segment numbers 98118. Color of live specimens red or reddish brown. Male pores usually absent; when present, unilateral in XVIII, in a large, transversely slit-like copulatory pouch. Primary male pore minute, on the center of a genital pad at the bottom of the copulatory pouch, usually not visible from outside unless everted. Other post-clitellar genital markings present or absent; when present, unpaired, mid-ventral, pre-setal clusters of numerous small tubercles on XVIIXVIII, occasionally on XIXXXII. Spermathecal pores two pairs in 6/7/8. Pre-clitellar genital markings unpaired, mid-ventral, pre-setal clusters of numerous small tubercles on VIIIIX, occasionally on VII, X, XI, similar to those in the post-clitellar region. Female pore single in XIV. First dorsal pore 11/12 or 12/13. Spermathecae two pairs in VIIVIII, large, duct shorter than ampulla, with a diverticulum longer than the main axis; genital marking glands present with long coelomic stalks. Prostate glands present or absent; when present, large in XVXXI. Intestinal caeca paired in XXVII, manicate, extending anteriorly to XXII, XXIII, or XXIV.
