Sao Paulo)): A, genital double-somite (ventral); B, exopod of A2; C, 1st and 2nd praecoxal endites of Mx2; D, basal spine of Mx2; E, P5 (anterior). cd = copulatory duct; cp = copulatory pore; g = gonopore; rd = receptacle duct; o, oviduct; s, spermatothore remnant; sr = seminal receptacle.

Nota: Posterior lateral corners of 2nd and 3rd pedigerous somites asymmetrically produced (corners more sharply pointed on right side than on left.
Genital double-somite longer than wide, copulatory pore relatively thick, located on right side, seminal receptacle located near gonopore.

Md: mandibular gnathobase with small tuft of setules medially, 3 teeth on cutting edge, dorsalmost of which bifurcate at tip (originally drawn as monocuspid by Campaner, 1977); palp endopod rudimentary, 1-segmented, with 2 setae of unequal lengths; seta on 1st exopod segment not reduced, outer seta on 5th segment relatively long.
Mx1 with relatively long seta on coxal endite; praecoxal arthrite with 5 naked spines and 1 process; coxal epipodite with 8 setae; small basal seta present; endopod bulbous, 1-segmented with 3 setae of unequal lengths.
Mx2 with 1st praecoxal endite with 2 spinulose setae and rudimentary element, 2nd with 2 spinulose setae; basal spine naked.
Mxp with the 1st to 6th endopodal segments bearing 1, 4, 4, 3, 3 and 4 setae, respectivelyP5 with coxae and intercoxal sclerite separate; endopod fused to basis; exopod almost fused to basis (fine suture visible); 1st and 2nd exopod segments fused with suture visible on posterior surface, 2nd and 3 rd exopod segments fused.
