Diagnosis.

Males can be separated from those of Nescina kohi sp. n. by the thicker terminal apophysis (Ta), by the different shape of the process I of the conductor (Cp-I) (see Ballarin and Li 2015: 183, fig 3 B–D vs. Fig. 6A, D) and by the slightly larger body size. Females are recognized by the shorter fertilization ducts (Fd) at the sides of the spermathecae (fig. 4 A–C with Fd reported as Id vs. Fig. 7 E–G).
