Rhagidial organ I with two recumbent baculiform solenidia, in tandem lying in confluent depressions. Stellate famulus subtending rhagidial organ I. Rhagidial organ II with three recumbent baculiform solenidia lying in tandem in confluent depressions. Solenidia of rhagidial organ I and two proximal solenidia of rhagidial organ II equal in size. Longest solenidion is the third distal solenidion of rhagidial organ II.
