Type material. Holotype: 1C (SORC-HV.226) Khanh Hoa Province, Duc Mu pass, 9 January 1989, coll. Spiridonov S.E. Paratype: 1C (SORC-PV.226), same data as sample SORC-HV.226 ( Thai 1996).

Setae numerous, regularly distributed on segments, 113 in IV, 136 in XIII, 120 in XXV, aa=1.5–2ab, zz=2–5zy. Male porophore on the bottom of a cone-like depression, about 0.25 body circumference apart. No genital markings in spermathecal and male regions. Numerous spermathecal pores in paired batteries, 6 pairs in 4/ 5, 6 pairs in 6/7 and 7 pairs and a single battery in 5/6. Ampulla heart-shaped, diverticula simple, attaching to duct. Holandric. Testes sacs ventral. Lymph glands absent. Ovaries large on septum 12/13. Intestine beginning at XV, without caeca. Last hearts in XII. Typhlosole simple, lamelliform, T=0.22. Septa 8/9/10 absent, 5/6/7/8 thickened. Pharyngeal micronephridia in 6/7. (Data from Thai 1996: 3–4.)

Remarks. The species is fairly similar to Polypheretima polytheca (Beddard, 1900) but differs in having spermathecal pores in 4/5–6/7, testes sacs in ventral position, absence of a copulatory pouch, and absence of genital markings. Types were rechecked for this study.
