C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: This species may be easily distinguished by the aede- agal characters, in particular by the strongly widened and flattened parameres. It lacks obvious abdominal microsculpture, as most of its allied. The submetacoxal plates of the sternite 1 are about 0.03-0.04 mm, as fifth to fourth of intervals to apical margin, the submetacoxal lines are weakly convex, coarsely and sparsely punctate, these punctures forming an uninterrupted row in the middle of the sternite.
