End narrowly truncate, weakly excised in the middle, but without distinct terminal knobs. Ventral side of epiproct convex. Paraprocts smooth; the setiferous tubercles scarcely prominent. Rims moderately wide and moderately high. Hypoproct rather long, triangular, the sides converging at an acute angle, almost straight. Setiferous tu- bercles moderately developed, not projecting. The end of the hypoproct narrowly rounded, not uncate. Gonopods. - (fig. 7) Kraus () has given drawings of various aspects of the gonopods which are in perfect agreement with the present male.
