1. Habitus
   Body yellowish before fixation, eyes present in 32% of fixed specimens.

2. Cuticle
   In juveniles cuticle appears smooth and only occasionally with poorly outlined pseudoplates and single very faint pseudopores in the caudo-dorsal part of the body. In adults the dorsal cuticle is covered with small faint pseudopores. The pseudoplates are arranged in following way: the segnemt between legs I and II and the segment between legs II and III are each covered with a single rectangular paired plate. Segments with legs II and III are both covered with a triple rectangular paired plate. The first segment posterior to legs III is covered with a single rectrangal paired plate and two smaller dorso-lateral pseudoplates. The second segment posterior to legs III is covered by a complex of ten pseudoplates, eight clustered on the dorsum and two placed dorsolaterally. Finally, on the segment immediately above legs IV there is paired pseudoplate.

3. Buccal apparatus
   Six peribuccal papillae and six peribuccal lamellae (of unequal size, 4+2) around the mouth opening. Buccal tube narrow and long (standard width on average 27% of the length), and funnel-shaped, wider anteriorly (posterior diameter on average 85% of the anterior diameter). Pharyngeal bulb elongated, pear-shaped and without placoids or septulum.
   Legs and claws

4. Legs and claws
   Claws of the Milnesium type, slender. Primary branches on all legs with small, but distinct accessory points.  Secondary branches with rounded basal thickenings. In juveniles (i.e. first two instars), claw configuration: [2-2]-[2-2], in adults claw configuration: [2-3]-[2-2]. In ca. 50% individuals single cuticular bars under claws I-III are absent. In the remaining half of the type series, bars are very faint.

5. Eggs
   Oval, smooth, deposited in exuvia.

6. Remarks
   None.
