one unmatched small dorsolateral seta on right side;tergite VI with one pair large dorsal and one pairsmall dorsolateral setae; tergite VII with one pairdorsal and one pair lateral setae, and one dorsolateralseta on right side; tergite VIII with one pairdorsal setae, one dorsolateral seta on right side, onepair lateral setae at posterior margin, and one smalllateral seta on left side about middle of tergite; tergiteIX with one pair dorsal and one pair lateral setae.Segment XI has only one lateral seta. SterniteVI 2.0 times as wide as long; Width/length ratio versusbody length, 4.0. Flagellum (Figs. 20-21, 102)0.86 rom long; without segments or articles; dm2seta missing. Sperrnathecae (Figs. 103-104) consistingof a single pair of slender straight lobes onlyslightly enlarging apically. Leg I, including coxa,16.12 rom long; basitarsal-tarsal proportions:40:9:10:9:11:10:29. Femur IV about 8.25 times aslong as deep. Pedipalp setation as in male (Fig.101). Pedipalp length in proportion to body length1.2 male pedipalp length.Variation: Some specimens occur with either twopairs dorsal setae or with one seta missing. Someindividuals have five setae on the anterior sternumand three on the posterior sternum. Tergal setationis highly variable, with individuals possessing orlacking either one or two small dorsolateral setae.Two individuals lack the large dorsal setae on tergiteIX.Measurements (mm).-Male holotype (femaleparatype): Pedipalp: trochanter 0.26 (0.36); femur1.16 (1.50); patella 1.02 (1.26); tibia 1.10 (1.38);basitarsus-tarsus 0.62 (0.78); total 4.16 (5.28).
