Variability
The female holotype was observed to possess two inner setae in P2 EXP3 . The male allotype was observed to possess three setae in P2 ENP2 View Materials (without inner seta) . Six female paratypes were dissected and the following was observed. One female possess three elements (one of them aberrant) in left P1 EXP3 and one inner seta in right P4 ENP2 View Materials . Another female showed an aberrant inner seta in right P1 ENP2 View Materials . One female showed an aberrant right P2 EXP3 . One female lacked the inner seta in left P3 EXP3 and another female showed the right P3 ENP2 View Materials with one inner seta. One female showed one inner seta in left P4 ENP2 View Materials .
