Surstylus long, only slightly bent: anterior lobe long, subrectangular with a basal constriction and an apical emargination, inner surface with long setae, posterior lobe stout, rectangular with fine outer setulae and stout inner setae. Postgonite elongate, slender, basal half curved forwards, apical half straight and tapered. Phallapodeme long, slightly sinuate, and apically truncate; basiphallus tall, 3.0× as tall as long in lateral view, very slightly tapered apically with a small dorsobasal tooth.
