Description of adult female (based on lectotype)
In life. Adult female plus ovisac about 10 mm long, ovisac 6 mm long, slightly striated, wax of inner ovisac light yellow; dorsal surface covered with white wax secretion; margin with short wax tassels (adapted from Cockerell, 1902).
Slide-mounted specimens. Body shape elongate to oval, lectotype 5.2 mm long, 3.8 mm wide. Apex of head, including antennae and eyes, missing from lectotype. Labium 200 µm long, 380 µm wide. Hindlegs 1623 µm long, trochanter+femur 650 µm long, tibia+tarsus 695 µm long, setae on leg segments 50–88 µm long; distal trochanteral setae broken; digitules broken. Mesothoracic spiracles each 215–225 µm long, atrium 175–185 µm wide; metathoracic spiracles each 230–250 µm long, atrium 240 µm wide; derm at atrial opening with 6–8 simple multilocular pores, each 9–10 µm in diameter with bilocular centre and 6–8 outer loculi. Ovisac band present, formed by robust, slender hair-like setae, 75–100 µm long, with visible sockets and flattened bases, and multilocular pores of two types: (i) larger pores forming inner ovisac band 5–7 pores wide, each pore 10–11 µm in diameter, with trilocular (sometimes bilocular) centre and 6–8 outer loculi, and (ii) smaller pores forming outer ovisac band 2–5 pores wide, each pore 8–10 µm in diameter, with bilocular or trilocular centre and 4–8 outer loculi, appearing slightly bluish when stained. Vulvar opening as for genus, surrounded by typical multilocular pores, each 10–12 µm in diameter. Cicatrix round, 290 µm wide. Abdominal spiracles with atrium 30–33 µm wide. Anal ring and anal opening missing from specimen.
Dorsum. Hair-like setae, 88–125 µm long, distributed as for genus; longest setae, 350–600 µm long, found around margin; robust hair-like setae, similar to setae in ovisac band, in segmental clusters medially on thorax and margins of thorax and abdomen, 50–100 µm long. Flagellate setae, 50–90 µm long, distributed as for genus. Multilocular pores, each 10–12 µm in diameter, with bilocular (sometimes trilocular or quadrilocular) centre, scattered across all body segments.
Venter. Hair-like setae 60–135 µm long, scattered across all body segments. Flagellate setae, 30–50 µm long, distributed as for genus. Multilocular pores, each 10–12 µm in diameter, with bilocular or trilocular (rarely quadrilocular) centre, scattered on submargin to margin of head, thorax and abdomen. Multilocular pores, each 9–10 µm in diameter, with bilocular or trilocular centre and 4–6 outer loculi, scattered medially to submedially on head and thorax; similar pores, each 8–9 µm in diameter, with bilocular centre and 4 or 5 outer loculi, scattered on medial to submedial abdomen.
Type data. MEXICO, Colima, Manzanilla, ex undetermined shrub, 18.vii.1902 (C.H.T. Townsend).
Type material examined. Lectotype (designated by Unruh & Gullan, 2008b): ad Ψ ( USNM). Paralectotypes: ad Ψ, 1 embryo, dry material ( USNM); ca. 28 embryos and eggs (BME).
