Aedeagus ( Fig. 23 View FIGURES 21–24 ) 0.9 mm long. Basal piece very short, about 0.2-times of aedeagus length. Median lobe distinctly longer than parameres, robust in basal 0.8, then distinctly narrowed, lateral margin strongly sclerotized in distal 0.2 ( Fig. 23a View FIGURES 21–24 ); membranous inner sac strongly sclerotized, with two long spines on each side ( Fig. 23b View FIGURES 21–24 ); apophyses of median lobe extending to base of basal piece. Parameres broad in basal 0.6, then gradually narrowed towards the apices ( Fig. 23c View FIGURES 21–24 ).
