Ventral plate hexagonal, distal border straight, lateral borders divergent until basalmost setae, becoming strongly convergent after it, setae not easily distinguished as groups, 5–6 short setae on each side, 1 long (about distal border length), acuminated, curved and subapical setae. Stylus with apex slightly inflated ( Fig. 7 C, D). For a complete diagnosis, see Pinto-da-Rocha & Kury (2003: 197)
