Esophagus with bulb about 217/* in diameter; slender part about mm. long. Male 10 mm. long. Caudal alac small. Preanal sucker 90/* in diameter, with papilliform nodule on its posterior edge. The anterior lip of the cloacal aperture, which is 170//, from the posterior extremity, projects as a triangular valve, from which the species derives its name.
