Fore margin of hypopharyngeal superlinguae covered with long hair-like setae; tip of superlinguae with short hair-like setae ( Fig. 2i View FIGURE 2 ). Glossae quadrangular, paraglossae widely rounded laterally ( Fig. 2f View FIGURE 2 ). Maxillae with a row of 16–19 comb-shaped setae on anterior margin, 5th comb-shaped bristle with 8–12 pointed teeth ( Fig. 2h View FIGURE 2 ).
