Male genitalia (Figs 89A–E): accessory sclerites absent; basal membrane attachment line of T8 tangential to basal emargination; S8 with lateral flanges abruptly developed at apex, with strong inner apical corners; S9 narrow, with deep apical emargination, small apical flanges, and with desclerotized basal and distal ends; T10 undivided; tegmen lacking medioventral process; median lobe wide and very short, with basal apodemes curved and tapering.
