Mouthparts. Labrum transverse, bearing 3 pairs of short setae, and 7 pairs of long setae, a-seta, b-seta, and many pores ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 b). Labium with two distal setae in a longitudinal row, and several pores in median area; a pair of setal pores, 2 pairs of real pores and several pseudopores present in lateral area ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 c). Labial palpi bearing 12 setae (a – h, α – δ), γ-seta close to f-seta ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 d). Mentum trapezoidal, bearing 4 pairs of main setae (b, u, v, w), 5 additional setae, and many pores ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 e).
