Tr I–IV with 1-1-1-1 setae; Bf I–IV with 3-3-3-2 setae; Tf I–IV with 7-7-5-4 setae; Gn I–IV with 7-(6,7)-4-3 setae, (2, 3)-2-0-0 Bp setae; Tb I–IV with (12,13)-(11,12)-7-8 setae, 6-3-1-4 Bp setae; Ta I–IV with 3-3-4-3 dorsal setae, 2-2-2-2 Bp setae.

Remarks. This species is characterized by Lc I–IV with accessory process. Although P-3 lacks ventral spine according to the original figure, it will be probably due to overlooking. Female and male are known. Non-type specimen is deposited in the Vites Collection (No.7220) of ZIZMH.
