Oedagus with base sharply angled and slightly constricted at the angulation, then gradually increasing in size to apex. The dorsal sclerotized plates are large and fit into the abrupt angle at the apex of the oedagus. Be- hind this is a pair of short membranous lobes, each bearing at its end a short, buttonlike sclerotized spine. The termi- nal projection of the oedagus is angled down more than usual and bears a single invaginated cluster of spines and a pair of thin, membranous lateral appendages

The termi- nal projection of the oedagus is angled down more than usual and bears a single invaginated cluster of spines and a pair of thin, membranous lateral appendages which reach one-third of the way to the base of the oedagus; these appendages have no spines at their apex but instead a circular opening around which are several small setae.
