The ventral rim of genital capsule possesses wide V-notch like median concavity and the mediolateral angles of genital capsule slightly produced mesially. This species is included here based on the material examined by Ghauri, 1977 from Gilgit, which is considered to be part of Ladakh, as per the new political map of India released by Survey of India ( Survey of India 2020).
