REMARKS. Pubescence simple, pronotum weakly transverse, callosity large, occupying about 1/3 length of side margin, very weakly set aside from the side of the edge, forms an obtuse angle without spike. The tip of the aedeagus is long, with corners outward, acicularly pointed at the very top. Parameres significantly shorter than apex of aedeagus, bottle-like, very wide basally and with long elongated neck, on top of paramere with 3 chaetae, its chaetae approximately equal in length, weakly curved, length of chaeta less than length of paramere.
This species is similar to several Central African species and it has not yet been possible to determine it.
