Description. Addendum to Schneider & D’Haese (2013). Total length of antenna ~ 58.2 µm; max width (Ant. III) ~ 15.7 µm; ratio width: length ~ 0.27; ratio length of Ant. I: Ant. II: Ant. III: Ant. IV ~ 0.24: 0.53: 1: 0.85. Antenna with an apical integumentary process partially covering the apical rod a (Fig. 14 A – D). With 9 + 9 τchaetae on trunk (Fig. 8 B). Abd. IV sternum with 2 + 2 chaetae. Correction from Schneider & D’Haese (2013): with nine ordinary chaetae on Ant. III, with only six ordinary chaetae on Ant. IV and an additional S-chaetae (s 5; Fig. 14 A – D); precoxal area of Th. II with only three chaetae (Fig. 8 B).
